Today I had the most delicious, juicy, sweet and still warm from the sun white fleshed peach I have ever eaten, plucked from the tree which gave us three wizened specimens last year. There are more to come. Whats more we sat in our mini pool while we ate as the temperature was 40 in the shade. Phew. :ohmy:

Picked all of the sweetcorn as they have been ripe for about 5 days and I thought I shouldn't stretch it much longer. So that's 2 for dinner tonight, 2 teeny tiny ones in the fridge for lunch or something and 10 more in the freezer!

Picked a couple of small cauliflower heads and also one large squash as it was clearly ripe and after last year I am twitchy about the rats and tree rats eating them. I have left the 3 smaller ones on then plant to hopefully fatten up a bit more

Passandra grafted cukes from Marshalls.

2 years of brilliance from them - AND I also have 3 of them growing outside against my warm house wall - so they're happy in or out ;) :)
