    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!!)

          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......

                          the first leeks

                          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 iron

                            Had allotment vegetable soup with my own bread then mixed berries and yoghurt sitting in the sun on the allotment today.

                              Well resurrected, 2sheds! This gives me chance to look smug - tonight I am eating cottage pie (includes hill carrots, onion, garlic and potatoes) along with hill cabbage and courgettes!

                              Yum!

                                We've had allotment soup too; leeks, onions, garlic, carrots, swede, cabbage, kale, perpetual spinach & chicken stock. Cooked by my eldest son Sam, who has ambitions to be Sam Stern!
