Mother in law brought back radish, lettuces and rhubarb

[fatbelly]

Tonights tea was a Fish Finger Salad (give it a go its lovely)

Cut and come again lettuce mixed in the packet before sowing with Rocket,  which is really really nice.

But the absolute star of the show was my Lady Chsitl new potatoes, which were gorgeous. I had to lift three plants to get enough for a generous meal for two and the spuds were about the size of satsumas.

This was my first new pots from the ground and they were planted just over 12 weeks ago so I would have hoped for a better yield.

Yield  4 / 10
Taste 9 /10

Mrs FB who doesn't  give praise out easily said the LC;s were perfect.

Lettuce, radish and spring onions for lunch, piled high on fresh crusty home baked bread with just a little extra mature cheddar.  Its not a proper sandwich if you don't have to worry that it wont fit in your mouth. 

Couple of carrots from the greenhouse they're a decent size now, its a shame there are only a few left.  Chard and beetroot. All went very nicely with tonights cottage pie.

Some lettuces so now the haberno chilli has more light to it

Yesterday I harvested...

a bowl of yummy strawberries
broad beans
the first of the peas.
2 mangetout pods (which didn't make it home  )
a single raspberry (from my autumn canes?!)

Had a furtle around the Charlotte potatoes that have been in for 12 weeks-might pop by the plot after work to get some for dinner tonight

Ask the black devil dog!!!!! Seriously though, I think they are Charlotte. I got two small packs of seed, think the others were Arran Pilot...maybe. I thought the labels were out of range of the dog, and that I would remember what was what anyway.....yeah, right!  :lol:These are the flowers of the container ones (Pilot?)

Your turnips look lovely, they would be nice with my taters.......

I think that's an Arran Pilot flower - but that's what you said isn't it - rather than Charlotte, which is a bit paler in colour.
