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!)  ];)

I made a pumpkin and bean cobbler, Theres a layer of homegrown big-size pumpkin precooked with rosemary topped with a layer of my precooked homegrown dried beans, tomatoes, onion and spinach with a crumble type topping of self-raising flour, cornmeal and oats, etc.

Its my own recipe to use those big pumpkins and dried beans, very tasty too.

try it,  :)

I am refreshed by the rain and the dew
And by thoughts of you...
