Only planted my plot six weeks ago, but had some of my spinach in an Irish ommlette!

The answer lies in the soil!

We had a curry which included our own onions and courgettes. Made a big pot of soup in the slow cooker which had onions, courgettes, a few beans and the last of the frozen tomatoes from last year. Oh and our first cooking apple that had fallen to the ground
When I get old I don't want people thinking
                      "What a sweet little old lady"........
                             I want em saying
                    "Oh Crap! Whats she up to now ?"

Thai green curry with Charlotte pots, green beans (and not our own prawns  :D), plus a stir fry of pack choi with spring onions. Not bad for a Tuesday night  :o

haven't managed to grow our own limes, lemon grass of ginger for the curry paste but did have plenty of home grown coriander and garlic

It's my fave part of having a lottie - I just go down and see what's ready and devise the menu for tea from that. I had a green curry too, onions, cauli, mangetout, potatoes, courgettes all from the lottie  ;D
When I'm not working, I'm diggin' or craftin'
