Been sitting in and out the sun today! Enjoying it!!
Wearing sunscreen I hope. And an ice lolly or two. Have you been harvesting your garden yet? Mine is overflowin wi raspberries
Factor 50!! And i have mr freeze sour ice poles! Delish! The apple tree has a few apples growing but only thing ready is strawberries which I just eat when I see them!! What you for making??
Dessert mostly, berries galore! Even a few gooseberries this year. Neighbour gave me some red currants I turned into a pink lemonade. Tatties going to salads. Herbs for everything. Plums I thinned hard this year to hopefully see a smaller yet bigger crop. Apples going great again, last year I turned loads into apple and bramble jam. And loads of crumbles. And I fancy rowan jelly this year for the first time, and lavender chicken is a thing. I even had some dandelion leaves in my salad, and I fancy some nettles in a broth. You can even make sticky willy tea, but I haven't been brave enough yet. Don't eat the foxgloves though. Gardens are surprisingly edible
You have loads!!! Our garden is mostly for bees, butterflies and birds, so they eat it and we just admire!!
