    I think there's a tomato pie in the future :)

    Thank you pac!

    I debated not keeping the Brugmansia this year. But they're not a lot of trouble.

    As for BLTs, being vegetarian, I use a simulated bacon product. Now it will be even stranger, because I've drastically cut back carbs! Also, the tomato piecwill be crustless.

    Daniel It’s all good .:smt060
    A fav to make in summers is sherbet with strawberry’s . Slice them up then juice them. Place in icecream machine it’ll be a wonderful natural healthy treat .

    Looks good @Daniel W i hope that you don't cut back on carbs altogether, because you do need some.

    My brother and his wife are vegetarians and she made millet rissoles, i thought that it was funny at the time because i always thought of budgies eating it. That's going back to the 70s when every meal was made from scratch.

    @Oreti that was a beautiful glad . They always seem to be a stand up example of the tallest brightest floral addition in the garden . Highly treasured. I sympathize with your disappointment . Do you know what happened ?

    Absolutely no idea @Pacnorwest .....we've searched the garden and there's no trace of the tall beautiful bloom . :headscratch::shrug:
    I've even spent the last couple of hours researching into what.....ate it ???...that's the only theory I have into it's very sudden vanishing trick.
    I've searched our security cameras too but we have chosen to only set it to activate on human movements ,so no luck there .
    We've completely mystified..:(
