August Courgettes and...

August 2nd 

Doing well on courgettes. There is a lot that can be done with courgettes. Well, you can give them away to the neighbours, sauté them, fritter them, make a yummy courgette and cheese flan, freeze them or make the most amazing vegan courgette and chocolate cake.

 

I have done all the above and still have courgettes left !

 

                          

 

 In my version I added crystallised ginger and honey-roasted almonds.

At the bottom of our LG lots of blackberries are beginning to ripen. This is the first year we have seen them.

 

Then around the edge of the LG there are so many blackberries. The hot weather has really got them in abundance this year. So we have been picking.

 

                   

And we have gladiolus, beautiful flowers that give us so much pleasure every year.

 

                    

 

 This is what we took home today. - the latest haul.
