Blueberries with pancakes for breakfast. Lettuce, tomato and radish with lunch and will have some potatoes tonight. Should have really picked some greens for tea, but the heavens opened when I was still trying to collect the blackcurrants.

The other day I had a large plate full of fried red onions - I love them!!

Today french beans, boiled potatoes (lifted a few hours earlier), beetroot and carrots with roasted gammon joint. Lovely.  :)

We've just had HFW courgette bruschetta, substituting Feta for Goat's cheese and Basil instead of Thyme

Very Yum Yum

Potatoes (smaller than last year but very welcome) and cobra French beans that have been delicious... perhaps something benefitted from all the rain earlier in the year.  ???

A first for us today, home grown cucumber - and grown outside at that .  :)  Opinion was divided but I was very pleased.

Later on will be courgettes with macaroni cheese.  If weare lucky there will be some blueberries to have for afters.
