A lettuce for tea
All the way from my allotment in beautiful Derbyshire. I'm in year 3 of my allotment and wish I'd caught the bug years ago, things growing from strength to strength

1st Cauli (hadn't noticed it growing, to be honest, until yesterday)




...together with broad beans and carrots and a globe courgette, together with the stockpile of 1st-earlies at home that's tea sorted.




and a spare carrot, "more" courgettes (yellow), mange-tout and a stalk from the chinese tender stem brocolli, that's a stir-fry for tea tomorrow :)

Happy days :)

strawberries, strawberries, strawberries!!

Also managed to get enough leaves for a mixed leaf and radish salad for 4 adults and 4 kids on Saturday, which I was very pleased about  :)

And then the last of the whitecurrants to go with a home-made chocolate cake :)

I picked enough peas to get some home  ::)
A couple of red banana shallots and a couple of male pumpkin flowers for a blind date with the female only flowers in the garden :D
Next plot holder gave me a couple of courgettes to stop me feeling deprived, so gave him a couple of pots of basil in exchange ;)

Picked some dwarf beans to include in our salad tonight.
4 more Bolthardy Golf ball sized beets are now boiling in the kitchen and have already trimmed some red barons/red spring onions + a few tasty french brekkies.

Picked two large carrier bags of broad beans. Spent two hours shelling them at my daughter`s house while the missus was babysitting our grandchildren. Put big bowl of beans on the baby seat in the back of the car to bring them back to freeze them. On the way home had to do an emergency stop to avoid being rammed by some brainless boy racer who didn`t as much as slow down at a road junction, and then had to spend another fifteen minutes picking up beans from every crevice and under the seats etc. >:(
I`m left handed, what`s your excuse?
