Pasta with garlic-scape pesto.

The garlic will probably be ready to pull in a few weeks - but we're still eating up last years garlic - that feels like a real success making a crop last 365 days!

Strawberries , and from greenhouse in garden cucumber , and lettuce from garden.

We are going to eat all this...

... ;D....and eggs from our girls.....or bit of steak (sadly we don't have a cow...other than me.. ;D)...(or should I call myself greedy pig.. :-X)

My Foremost newies and onions are in the steamer and pork loins in sauce are on the barbie as I type.   :P ;D 

Vanessa spuds, calabrese, small cauli , new peas, all with lamb and mint sauce. We are so lucky  ;D

A few Lady C tats, a cabbage and the first of the globe artichokes (cooked for tomorrow's starter), last year's runners (from the freezer - had to really hunt for those so nearly down to the end) with sausages.

Today.... (not all on one plate)... new potatoes, strawberries, beetroot and spring onions.

Maris bard, spring onion, coriander did a nice potato curry.

Mustard greens, new potatoes, carrot, chard, chives, parsley and lettuce did a quality "produce soup" cooked in a little chicken stock.

The globe artichokes and nothing else. Was truly another "When Harry met Sally" moment  ;D

What a beaut davyw1!

We enjoyed a very tender serving of broad beans and new potatoes with our Sunday roast... enough for the 5 of us.  :)

I must have a look at the carrots when I'm down on the plot next. Fed up with supermarket tasteless varieties.

Gooseberry crumble!

Broad beans, potatoes, strawberries, raspberries and blackberries (just a few).

Just had a great brunch.  New potatoes with parsley, broadbeans, courgettes, topped off with a couple of fried eggs rounded off with strawberries and redcurrants.  Total cost 33p.

Ate my first homegrown strawberries today. They were huge, and absolutely gorgeous. :P Also cooked our first courgettes - a green and a yellow. Got a great buzz out of that since it's my first time growing them. I have a double-barreled yellow about to flower. The granddaughter's gonna get that in her baby food. ;)
