Planning for Christmas Already!


Today is not about gardening. Today is about rumtopf.



I started my first rumtopf, with cherries (not local, but the rest of the fruit I put in will be! Peaches, strawberries, blueberries!)

Behold:

clean cherries

halved and pitted

and covered in half their weight in sugar to sit overnight, called plumping!

they will end up in this pot, covered in rum!
