Thanks for reminding me... :) I need to go under the stairs to get some potatoes out for my parents dinner this evening. It's a long way to cycle back if I had forgotten them!!

Roast chicken with allotment grown roasted BON BON Squash and salad.

Cut a swede out of the ground, and some lovely sprouts, there some broad beans still in the freezer with some cauliflower florets thet will all be cooked for newyear

Which varieties of potato do you find best to supply for most of the year? And do you grow Chard ? Which is the best tasting variety

Just had a rocket fro the lottie and smoked ham sandwich. Tonight I am doing squid provencal with tomatoes/courgettes sauce made in the summer.

Was lovely to provide all the veg for Christmas Day again - may not be the best looking veg but very gratifying.

We are having soup that was made with all veggies from the allotment

Potatoe's (cara) with red cabbage,and onions oh and beetroot..... :-)
