We are having lettuce with tea. Also had some lettuce on sandwiches at lunch. At the plot I did eat numerous baby carrots and strawberries! Yesterday made a nice spicey tomato dish with new potatoes, carrots, onions, parsley in. That was followed by jelly with rhubarb, gooseberries and raspberries in.

onion, spring onion, garlic, carrots, carrot thinnings, broad beans, mangetout, potatoes, strawberries, cherries...Yum!!!

I am now officially vegetarian in order to keep up with the amount of stuff I am picking/ digging up every day. Apart from the Sunday roast of course.  ;)
