WHAT DID YOU EAT FROM YOUR ALLOTMENT TODAY?
« on: August 04, 2009, 19:30:27 »
Today we had Bangers and mash, with runner beans and gravy.
 I grew the spuds, runners and the onions for the gravy, (not allowed to keep pigs!)  ;)
You couldn't make it up!

Tony, that's what we had too!

Bangers (from our lovely local butcher in Pinner), "smashed" Picasso potatoes, french beans, courgettes fried in butter with lemon, and onion & red wine (not mine!) gravy.

Absolutely nothing today!
 
However yesterday I had potatoes, runner beans, carrots, onions, spring onions, lettuce, radishes, beetroot, rhubarb and blackberries. Not all together I might add!
Flighty's plot,  http://flightplot.wordpress.com,  is my blog.
