Hurrah!

On my sandwiches today I had some lettuce picked this morning when I made them. I think the people at work are getting sick of me saying, 'this was growing only 5 hours ago...'. My care-o-meter is reading negative though!

Loool lucky you! It's so rewarding to put something fresh in your mouth.
We had the first potatoes the other day. Yum!
I'm one of the unlucky ones, who normally can't taste if they are really new, and therefore don't caremuch for potatoes. But theese were excellent!

We have had our first courgettes, winter grown spring onions and best of all our beautiful beautiful brocolli grown in tyres on waste ground on our service road out the back of our garden. I shared it with my friend who lucky for her has an allottment and I was so chuffed when she said she'd never seen a better looking brocci home grown.

Better still, the kids loved em too.

It is so rewarding I love it. Just have to think of interesting ways to cook all my lovely courgettes and brocs that are mass producing.

Hi Stacey

I do like your avatar.

Now, tell me - how can i get my boyfriend's little girl, who is 11 - to eat veg?

Any ideas?

She does love broccoli, and will begrudgingly carrots - but peans/beans/lettuce are a no-go area. Onions - absolutely never.

If you have any good ideas that I can use to persuade her, then do let me know.

They sound really good Stacey - if I could get her to cook anything it would be a miracle; she gets bored after a nanosecond - and gets 'tired arms' after about 2 minutes just mixing yorkshire puddings/pancake mix!!!

I'll keep an eye on the fussy eaters thread and print it out for when she next comes round.
