    I'm now eating pud/supper: rice pudding with stewed plums - also from the freezer, from the garden - the plums, not the rice!

      A while ago I mentioned that I wouldn't be growing any more Purple sprouting broccoli because of the time it was in the ground and how much space it took up.

      I have now totally recanted.

      I have become a broccoli addict!! I love it.!!!!!! Whether it be with cold meats,poached eggs,Sunday lunch or even by itself for a light supper with butter and loads of pepper on my life would not be the same without it!
      In fact, I think I will go for early PSB and late PSB this year to try and eke it out as long as possible!

        We had fish and chips today. Being Good Friday it was a fast day so we decided on fish and chips today as we always get a take away on a Friday.

        And when your back stops aching,
        And your hands begin to harden.
        You will find yourself a partner,
        In the glory of the garden.

          No, Bramble! Unless you grew the chips yerself, this doesn't count.

          We had Purple Sprouting Broc (again) and Leafbeet (again) - this time made into a pasta sauce with lentils, pimento-stuffed olives and a pinch of chilli. Topped with chives, garlic chives and parsley, all from the garden

            Ate the very first Radish grown by us from seed on the plot, the first thing we've been able to eat that we have grown from seed ever! Only have about 5 that are of edible size, but was lovely!

              Rhubarb Ripple Fool, made with my own rhubarb (thank you to another grape) and recipe from Wellie. Thank you Wellie, that sure went down a storm.

                Trousers is preparing dinner as I type. We've got pasta with home-grown Asparagus, Garlic, Mushrooms, Spinach, Rocket, Salading Leaves, all cooked with a little white wine and cream.
                What waist-line?!

                          We had home grown spring onions, onions, lettuce and leaves in a salad, cabbage, carrots and onion for a coleslaw, asparagus in a quiche and finally

                          roasted rhubarb with ginger and dark brown sugar served with creme fraiche and icecream.

                          We only had to buy the meat for a barbie.

                                At last I can finally join in with this thread! Hurrah!

                                Ahem, ahem......today I had a sausage casserole with HOME GROWN new potatoes, turnip and broad beans!

                                YES!!!

                                PS Next year the beans in the casserole will be home grown too - but I draw the line at 'own pig' for the saus....
