Hi Charlotte we had our first Charlotte potatoes this evening for tea and the kids commented how nice they were which made me feel great as they did not know they were mine.

we are haivng our very first anya spuds tonight.  never grown them before and they are still a touch small but the foliage had died back a bit on them.  also dug up some international kidney which we'll attack tomorrow tea time.  yum.

I had my first ever home grown spuds last year and they were delicious, glad you enjoyed yours.

theres nothing like digging up your own spuds. Im just about to pop down and dig some pentland javs for tea. I refer to my spud beds as my goldmine lovelly nuggets

Isn't it wonderful, your own spuds! You'll never be able to eat store bought again without thinking, "hmmph, not nearly as good as mine!"

I just came home from lifting all of my "Timo" ones- they were becoming enormous so they have all been brought home to live out their last days in the comfort of my corner cupboard.

Waiting excitedly for our almond potatoes this autumn...

I've had my first spuds this week too - lovely Shetland Blacks, originally sourced from the back of my fridge where they'd started chitting.
They are delicious and bright purple, although the colour fades when you cook them.
