Back from holiday last night, and today was a quick run round to pick everything that had come good over the last 2 weeks :)

So, a couple of dozen yellow cherry tomatoes, two cucumber, a bag full of rocket and a handful of salad leaves, the last of my radishes, and a couple of orange chillis.

(Cucumbers and radishes turned out to be a little bitter, but the toms and salad leaves were fab!)

10 inches long, 7 inch girth.......... The first Marketmore of the season on the first of September!  ::) There's another one nearly as big waiting in the wings....

Couple of courgettes to go in the dinner, apart from those.  :)

Yesterday I picked - 12 sweet million tomatoes from the greenhouse (all now eaten), two greenhouse cucumbers (they finally seem to be slowing down) and one outdoor cuke, two large but not quite marrow size courgettes (which I gave away) and one small courgette, a couple of sweet green peppers and lots of spring onions.

Yesterday - one big (over 1lb) courgette with lots more small ones to come. Made soup with it for last nights dinner.

Today - had a quick look in the green house this morning - about a dozen sweet million toms ready to pick along with a couple of cukes. Lots of beetroot ready so going to pick some and pickle it today (weather too bad to do anything else).

One huge marrow (actually a well hidden courgette) plus four small ones, Cherry Toms, Golden Sunrise (My favourite) and Roma toms, a couple of green peppers, another carrier bag of French climbing and dwarf beans, a few runner beans, a large handfull of Autumn raspberries. One cabbage + attendant cloud of white fly, one Turks Turban squash to try.  I also have two quite big spagetti squash that I cannot wait to try.

12 sweet million tomatoes, enough ripe hot chillies to make a jar of OH's favourite pickled peppers (with more to come) and four perfect sweetcorn cobs which OH and I devoured for lunch. Yumm.

Enough dwarf french beans for with our dinner - these were just thrown into a small space rather than leave a bare patch so well pleased. Plenty more to come.

At first glance, I read that as 12 million sweet tomatoes!  :lol: Wishful thinking on my part.  ::) I have another 3 + lurker courgettes to pick later to make up part of dinner. :)
