VintageHow lucky were we!After a very rainy and sleepless Friday night, the skies cleared so that we could pick on Saturday ... berries all sound and full-flavoured, although a little wet. Could have been much worse! We have had a huge downpour yesterday ... the creek broke its banks and logs were seen floating down it! Got the job done with 20 friends and 7 contract pickers. We went Latin and kept it simple for the evening meal ... albondigas (Vic's lovely pork and herbs meatballs in a rich tomato sauce) ... and a vegetarian lasagna ... all with herbed potatoes; broccoli and asparagus (thanks Pete for taking over the veg!). For dessert ... an almond cake with an orange liquor syrup, cream/icecream. Wine, food and good company under the verandah on a pleasantly warm evening, with a storm building up all around us.
