              Well that's good, how many seeds to a bag did you put?

                        Asparagus, I have about 24plants that are 3years old so it's full steam ahead this year for picking. Looking for a variety of recipes. Found a good one that dipped them in batter and deep fried.

                          Asparagus. Lurverly with butter lemon juice and black pepper.... having just been steamed

                          Not tried them deep fried. Is that a Morvern thing

                            I had my first strawberries of the season from my polytunnel, a bowl of lovely elsantas with cream cheered me right up as I looked out at hailstones pounding my garden.

                              My first new potatoes - from a pot in the GH. Probably would have had more/larger potatoes If I'd left them longer but I can't resist rootling for taties.
                              There are none left now - I've eaten the lot, with butter Scrumptious!!

                                Picked my first artichokes! Not huge (about the size of an apple) but there are lots more on the way so I thought I could treat myself.....Now for the faffing about in order to consume not much (although delicious) veg
                                There is no dress rehearsal for life. Not many second chances. Make the most of every day and spend as much of it as you can creating little moments of happiness!
