Yesterday on the allotment.  One strawberry, raspberries that were picked to take home.  ;) ;) One red apple from a neglected plot, one pear that fell from the tree next to my allotment, and the plot is also not used, few blackberries, my tongue is permanently black.  At home for dinner, beans, spinach and pots with mint with lamb chops (from Morrisons) and stewed plums and custard.

(Rump steak) garlic onions aligot (only partially from my allotment) and salad. I'm also cooking ratatouille for the freezer and plum and (oat crumble).  And have frozen green beans, broadies and peas. Damsons in the fridge along with even more toms, kohl rabi, long red florence onions and crystal apple cucumbers.
We lottie holders don't half live well.

Chicken (T*sco) with home grown courgette, tomato, garlic and bay leaf sauce. Saddad you are making my mouth water - really must put in some fruit trees / bushes. Realised last week that one of the large tree-shaped weeds that I nuked when I took on my plot was probably a plum tree  :'(
