        Charlotte potatoes. I carefully dug up a couple of plants this week, picked off the largest tubers, replanted and watered in. Four helpings of lovely new potatoes! These plants will give me another crop in a month's time.

                A family sized portion of lettuce leaves for a nice crisp salad with cheese and onion quiche.

                  My first Joan J raspberry - fooled into thinking its autumn
                  and a Douce Provence pea pod for grazing whilst I gazed.

                  Picked a mix of Mangetout yesterday. Nibbled most of those raw too

                      These were supposed to go out into the growhouse when they got too big for the grow lights, but somehow they never left the kitchen windowsill!

                          My first ever carrots, thinning a few out so the others can grow more

                          Never been able to grow carrots before. This year I tried them in a grow table in fine compost and they have come out perfect and straight. And they taste blooming gorgeous!
