Almost time for the elderflowers of the black elder. Pale pink blossom on feathery black leaves. Not out yet in NHG Elisabeth! Will notify at first sign of a tiny wisp. BTW, one of the bushes has been cut way back. Slight struggle.
Raspberry jam is best! Was thinking I need to replace supplies from frozen - same weight fruit to sugar, as I'm sure you know - cos the commercial jams are stodgy (too much setting-agent?)
Let's hope they fight back - as I remember, elder is witch-friendly. Saw a black cat around somewhere - that'll help.

And Victoria sponge...a bewitched cake for sure. Raspberry jam is best isn't it...
I love that book
I so love getting your substacks. It is like receiving a fragrant bunch of flowers each time. Thanks so much Elizabeth!
Wild and delicious 💜🌸💛
