It was fine Frank. Made LONG chips with it, a real treat as we don't have chips (fries) very often. Dug another of a similar size and had him...
Quiche lorraine Frank. Lashings of double cream and rich, creamy cheddar. Yum.
I hate the sewing up also Toni and save that up for mum. She makes such tidy seams...mine are always scruffy and I do think that can ruin...
Hello from a wet and windy Essex, UK. :)
I find it very hard to narrow this down to one veg, so I will cheat and do it seasonally. In the spring, it had to be the leeks, planted in...
My mum used to have one of those. I have inherited some of her tupperware...it has stood the test of time that's for sure.
Yup, got those knitting needles out and am finishing a project I started in the spring, a long coat/cardigan. It is a lacey pattern, which I keep...
See, now you all make me think I might need a few more. :) I do have to get some shallots to plant, so I think I have probably grown enough......

Yes, I fear I really do have a problem. I can't resist seeds, and at this time of year around here, all of the garden centres are selling their...
The allotment is still in full swing, but over the last 3 or 4 days, we have had so much rain here in Essex, I was concerned that my squash...
We do get prize money, but not enough to go on a cruise with. 50pence for a first, 30pence for a second and 20pence for a third. However, it...
Finally, as the evenings draw in I have more time to get things organised, so here are some of the photos taken at the Little Baddow and Danbury...
At the local garden centre and spotted a good deal, so purchased 200 over wintering onion sets. 200! My daughter was gobsmacked, but as I...
So much to do. My garden looks like a jungle thanks to the rain and the mild weather. The allotment is also still fully productive and the weeds...
I have dieted all of my life. I was bullied at school for being fat, and am at an all time low at the moment as I just feel like I look horrid....
