Sarv,sounds like you had a really big day and deserve a treat,cherry/chocolate ice cream sounds great.I haven't cut my clematis for the last 2 years and they are still doing OK. For a crunch recipe I can show you mine,which may not help much. Chop up a bunch of rhubarb,mix in a big bowl with enough sugar to sweeten to taste, a pinch of salt and enough flour to thicken the juices,pour into an ovenproof dish,dot with butter and top with a mixture of oatmeal,flour,sugar and melted butter.Bake on a foil covered baking sheet at 350° for an hour or so till tender and the top is browned. Sorry its so vague,I can find a few real recipes if you'd like.
After the brick mason left this morning I ordered the new sunroom door to replace the old nasty one,went to the new Indian Casino and lost $25.It sure is a beautiful place,and that's about the extent of my gambling for the year.Then scanned about 140 slides into the computer.At least its a start.Dear one is probably basking in the Tuscan sun about now,poor baby.I'd best be off to a shower and then think about what to make for dinner.Probably salad with the leftover chicken breast,avacado and balsemic vinegaret and Fergassa bread from the bakery.The view is the Skagit River at Mt. Vernon,WA circa 1965
