Quince Vodka

I'm the middle one of the three Farrow Sisters - and my real passion apart from crafting is also growing and making things which are either for eating or drinking.   I was lucky enough to be given some quinces a couple of weeks ago and decided to have another go at making some quince vodka - went down very well last year with a splash of tonic, especially on a cold winters evening when relaxing by the fire.  The rest of the quinces will be used to make spiced quinces which are also another Christmas favourite - an excellent accompaniment with hot or cold ham, pork and strong cheese.

RECIPE for Quince Vodka
Ingredients:
1 large quince, washed and grated
650ml vodka
200gms vanilla caster sugar or ordinary sugar is okay (I add a vanilla pod to my sugar jar to get the flavour)
Jar with lid large enough to hold all the ingredients. 

Method:
Place the grated quince into the jar along with the sugar and vodka.  Put the lid on and shake daily until Christmas - it does improve if you can manage to keep it longer !!

welcome to our first blog page

Now WHERE shall we begin?  Well we have been crafting away quietly for many years and after having thoroughly enjoyed making things for our friends, family and our homes we've decided to finally take that big leap by trying (yes TRYING) to get our itsy bitsy company up and running on Etsy and also to start a blog.

Our  'Etsy' shop was opened about 3 weeks ago now and we hope you'll take a peek at our shop (the link I am assured will appear somewhere on this page!)  At the moment we only have one item available in our shop which is a sewing kit for a range we have called 'Riverbank Farm' and the kit is called; 'Mr. Whiskers the Trug Maker & 'Who is Mr. Whiskers' storybook.' Kit No. 1.  

We are currently finalising four more kits that we hope to let loose on our Etsy shop as soon as we are happy with them.

 We thought we'd push ourselves to see what happens by jumping straight into world of the 'crafting blog' and we hope to entice you to craft with us.

Enjoy.
