Having purchased Crème Crue, we needed fruit. We Plum-ped for these Mirabelles.
The scent of the rip fruit is gorgeous. They also look pretty, don’t they?

Reminds me of walking along Berwick St Market with my mum, seeing a box of fruits, similar to your Mirabelles, the plums country cousin, greengages! That deep glowing gold held a summerful of sunshine & they still shine in memory. They made wonderful jam, too. Oh, yes & the box cost the princely sum of 12/6d ! That’s half a crown! (8 o those to the £ !)
The Half Crown was such a satisfying coin. I always felt rich with one of those in my pocket.
