Yesterday, we had: broad beans, carrot thinnings, mange tout, lettuce and strawberries off the plot! I think my hubby is now starting to realise that it's worth the digging - I'm sure he thought nothing would grow & I'd get bored & give up.

Today we've the first cucumber, a large rosso red lettuce, radishes, spring onions, cut n come again salad leaf and our first ripe tomatoes from the cheapo plastic greenhouse, all making a salad with a couple of pork chops!
First meal that is completely home grown (apart from the pork, but maybe one day!!)Blessings

Last night we had the inlaws join us (fairly unexpectedly) for dinner, so I roamed off to the garden and picked myself some gooseberries. Still slightly hard and perhaps a little premature, but I decided to go for it anyway and we had ourselves a LOVELY gooseberry crumble.

Trousers has very kindly cooked dinner for the last two nights, on account of the fact that I'm just 'UP TO THERE' with sowing, weeding and harvesting, and I am so very grateful to you sweetheart. Thank you.
Last night he did the most amazing Linguini pasta with fresh courgettes, pattypan spaceships, mangetout, cheery (no I do mean that!) tomatoes, garlic, and herbs. And that tickled my tastebuds all the way through until this evening, when he prepared some Hickory-Smoked Pork Tenderloin with our very own fresh veg, and a few chips (!)
And THIS is completely private, never to be spoken of again....
He actually took a SALAD to work today instead of a sandwich.
Sshh.
He'll never know that I told you......

Tonight we are having:
the first leeks
the first sprouts
the first Osaka red mustard
the first Pak Choi
with Italian kale, curly kale, spring onions red and white, chillis and French bean seeds, all stir-fried with sambal oelek for a kick. And a glass of red for the ironAll gardeners know better than other gardeners." -- Chinese Proverb.
