Squash
Saturday, September 4th, 2010I have already eaten quite a few of the squash, they have come on really well. They needed that long dry spell to take and now the rain just keeps adding bulk to them. It has become like the courgette and just given me more than I know what to do with. Still, soups and [...]
Courgette Delight
Friday, September 3rd, 2010I have been so impressed this year with the courgette. It has given me so many to eat or give away. I have been experimenting all summer with different soups to try and eat as many as possible. I’ve been quite good and discovered that there are many flavours that go with courgette, such as [...]
Broad Beans
Thursday, September 2nd, 2010My broad beans did well this year as I kept on top of the black fly and got them off as soon as possible. I am quite pleased really as I now have a surfeit of broad beans and can plan some nice meals later in the year as I have frozen most of them.

Sweat Pea
Wednesday, September 1st, 2010My sweat pea’s surprised me this year. I thought they would grow much taller but they kept low. I was disappointed as I like the fact they go wild and all over the place.

Lupins
Saturday, August 28th, 2010There is something enigmatic about lupins that I love each year. I cant quite put my finger on it, but I love the way they are so vibrant and silky.

Squash
Friday, August 20th, 2010Looks sweet doesn’t it? It’s much bigger now and on the plot growing fast in the recent hot weather. I’m hoping for a lot of squash this year as I have plenty of recipes I want to try. I’ll tell you if they work nearer the time.;)

Alium
Wednesday, August 18th, 2010I bought these as bulbs from Wilko. I didn’t think they would come to much as I have bought from them before and they are poor. However, I was pleasantly surprised when these came up and were just what I had hoped for.
Being sceptical that they would actually grow I put too many of them [...]
