[New shoot]

The strawberries I posted a piccie of in my earlier Here come's summer thread have not disappointed



What else could a girl do faced with that lot but make strawberry pavlova



Anyone for a slice    I have bravely tasted it to make sure it's OK and lived to tell the tale.........burp   

It's been a trying year for crops so far so I'm making the very best of what I do get, so lets see some piccies of what's your best triumph so far and cheer us all up.

From a rather full up New Shoot

Please send me some down the line..........can swap for blackberry upside down cake (no photo cos it looks messy  that tastes scrummy with some squirty cream 

[New shoot]

Not sure what state it will arrive in mum but a big slice coming your way and I love upside down cake     

[sunshineband]

New Shoot that looks absolutely delish ---- if only I'd known half an hour ago I'd have been round 

I'm now full up with raspberry cheescake 

but would have sacrificed it for pavlova 

[New shoot]

Now that would be the kind of dilema that would keep me up at night  Raspberry cheesecake OR strawberry pavlova  :blink: 

In the words of Shaggy from ScoobyDoo - now that's like impossible

Strawberries from yesterday didnt make it as far as a pudding but I did have my five a day 

[mumofstig]

So stuffed I couldn't reply sooner ..it was a tad squashed..a bit like my blackberry cakecake (don't ask!) but it was lurvely.
Now where's the raspberry cheesecake  .....and the indegestion tablets 

[New shoot]

Nice one Beetroot Queen   

I've got a couple of days off so am going to investigate the plot today and see what's still hanging on   

Upside down cake was fab too mum - hope the indigestion tablets kicked in

Todays harvest has a distinctly allium theme

What was left of the overwintered onions that hadn't bolted. I know they aren't quite ready but they were so scattered it seemed silly to keep using up so much ground for what was left



Garlic



Some container new potatoes and a bunch of spring onions (was stuggling a bit for anything else) 

[Trillium]

Mmmm, potato salad time 

[Irene]

I'm green with envy over your spring onions. I have some coming..thanks to encouragement on this board, but they aren't close to yours yet.

Agreed, potato salad..who grows dill?

Those strawberries look absolutely delicious.  Mine are just getting going and taste great too.
