My Best Efforts - Year 3

By AMC

A Real Sign of Autumn.............

................... is when the Rosehips appear. Rose hips can be used for so many things - such as Jelly, Jam, Syrup, Marmalade and, I am told, even Bread!! They are very high in Vitamin C and apparently a healthy treat for Guinea Pigs and pet Chinchillas!! I understand Rosehip Syrup was given to children during the last war as fruit such as Oranges was not available.
I like them in a vase in the house - although it's a prickly job picking them.

Weather very bright and sunny and quite chilly at the moment.
