Got to Globoka. We had cherries.
Perfect timing. On the Sunday we got there, the cherries were almost ripe. On the Wednesday, they were perfect. Two weeks later, they were going off, so I cooked jam. Found this recipe on the internet and rolled with it.
Not that I would be able to replicate it, because I went to town, the stuff boiled over, Pieter cleaned it up… but it was good. Stuck it in little jars, brought three of them home as gifts, received compliments for months after the fact.
Anyway, here’s some more cherry pics.
Our view towards Ljutomer (behind the hill) and Maribor (towards the right, mostly over the horizon).
Tanya and Basil (Gavin needed fresh basil for a recipe. Couldn’t find any. Bought a little plant from the nursery. Basil gave his all on this holiday).
