Small Harvest

Well done, Nariz ...
lots of lovely garden produce ...
Enjoy your meal ... :o)

As its cold and very wet today, we are having a cooked meal indoors Nariz, its good to see the rewards from your garden sitting in the sunshine near the lovely flowers, enjoy your meal, I`m wonderng whether to put the heating on for a while,(sigh).

Umm excuse me, but wheres the vino tinto?

Developed a passion for 'padron' whilst living in Gran Canaria with lots of salt.mmmmm

Nice yield! :)

TT: I WILL enjoy! Lincslass: Don't give up hope yet! There's more summer to come! Gannyb: Vino tinto's where every Spaniard worth his salted padrons keeps it - in the fridge! Pixi: There's more! :o)

How lovely to see such a rewarding harvest . . . and in bright sunshine too. Well done you!

hi its so nice to grow your own it taste so much better very well done :))

oh nariz :-( you made me very hungry; i love sweetcorn.

So do I Sticki, its made my mouth water Nariz just thinking about that lovely lush corn coated in hot melted butter and those from the supermarket aren`t in the one two three with that fresh from the garden.

oooh stroller now you have made it worse ~ dripping in melted butter!!
my mum was born in june and loves strawberries, i was born in september and love sweetcorn [im sure theydidnt used to come into the shops till september] do you think its a coincidence??

wonderful - I shall have to have ago at this gyo.

GYO is the only way to go! Soooooooo satisfying, :o)

Nice basket full of garden produce you have there, Nariz!

I've been picking potatoes, cucumbers, lettuces, raspberries & blackberries this week! Oh, did I forget to mention several kilos of green beans?!

With all the raspberries I've eaten during the last week I ought to LOOK like a raspberry by now! LOL!

Lol.

That basket is lovely too, do they make them locally?

No, Sticki, we bought that in Javea 'dahn sarf.' The baskets here are made with wide reed and are very expensive for what they are - and not very robust for their use. They seem to be more for tourists than farmers these days.

Lucky you .Love the "padrons". Never seen them in England .

Mmmm.... I've only managed a few potatoes this year...but next year it will be beans, squash, swt. corn and carrots. Have plans to build a carrot bed...(It's sandy loam with not too much compost, as it makes the carrots rooty...but dug very deep..18 to 24 inches, with good drainage beneath...carrots are so easy to pull and they (Nantes or Chantenay) grow long, slender and sweet! That's if you don't have a hubby like mine who adores the "baby" size carrots...wrapped in a cocoon of foil..sprinkled with butter and salt...and placed on the barbeque to caramelized in their own juice...!
