Cauliflowers and Roses

We have been having lots of sunshine and showers here over the past couple of weeks, and so I thought I'd share a few photographs of our garden, which is looking particularly lush and lovely at the moment.

One of the most fantastic things about my summer has to be...........

lunch picked fresh from the garden

chard leaves, rocket, broad beans, radish, chives
with some sliced tomatoes, mozzarella, basil leaves and drizzled with olive oil-mmm!

Everything seems to be ripe and ready for picking this week- but with umpteen freshly picked cauli, broccoli, blackcurrants and raspberries, out came the cookery books..........
and a little later-a yummy cauliflower curry, and homemade jam...

............followed by a glass of rose and a book under the pear tree!
