Thrills in Aspatria this week as we pulled our first potatoes.
Ian forced me out of doors in my dressing gown early one morning this week – to see our first tomato (tiny, green, but nonetheless a tomato). We decided that although we had no idea whether it was time to harvest potatoes we would take the risk, and pulled the weediest looking plant. To our astonishment:
Sorry to bore the non-gardeners, but this week we have eaten our first onion, cabbage and radishes, as well as the potatoes and more courgettes. :yum: Possibly beginning to tire of lettuce? 😕 Luckily there are two other varieties on their way to maturity 🙂
Them’s good spuds :yum:
I pulled my first potatoes yesterday and harvested a couple of courgettes. I decided that earlies should surely be ready, even though there were no flowers.
Fantastic.
I forgot to take pictures before I let Pete cook them.
Well, you can send a picture of people feeling ill after Pete’s cooking :yum: :yum:
pete cooking?? ❓ Were you out/ill/away Tish. 😆
Did he find the kitchen?
Terry: Pete was only given the spuds a few days ago, we’ll have to wait for the photos of ill people until after he’s taken them out of the microwave. 😯
Right, I’ve had quite enough of this! 😳
