                  • Picked my first couple of squash. One was the recommended size but the other one I picked a bit prematurely. Not sure how I'm cooking these yet but not much on them so might just slice and fry.

                          • Today I picked my first three Sungold tomatoes. Had them at lunchtime with my salad.

                            And when your back stops aching,
                            And your hands begin to harden.
                            You will find yourself a partner,
                            In the glory of the garden.
