Wild Food...wild plums

Yesterday I was strimming the yard when I thought, blow this for a joke, I shall take the dogs to the river for a swim...off we go!

While letting the dogs out of the dog box I espied a tree, a very bountiful wild plum tree!! The plums are green in colour but very sweet. Rummaged around in the ute and found a suitable bag, picked an amount of the spherical delights, and when home cooked two jar lots and had what was left over for pudding with a dollop of cream...we will be going back to visit the tree...I added a cinnamon stick

They will go well in a crumble come Winter!

Excellent EeeBees. For the uninitiated among us (namely me) what pray tell is strimming?

Very nice.
At a guess, I would say that when you got home you still had the strimming to complete?

Yes, Sako75, and I have to say what was left to do is still left to do as a beautiful thunderstorm came through and that was that...hopefully will have the ergs to get it finished tomorrow after work.
