I love walking passed the veg counters in the supermarket when we have some veg of our own Carole , Young fresh carrots are my favourite Sue delicious with the new potatos , I didn't know if you could freeze Mange Touts knowing we will have more than we need each day I googled it and it says yes you can ,blanch in boiling water for 90secs freezing cold water for 90secs It will be interesting to see if they keep well for things like stir fries ... I did one small batch today ....

Snap Dawn !! we had Gammon broad beans peas and new Pots ..LOL ..great minds think alike ,we didn't have mint sauce though we had mustard ,then strawberries and cream , it tastes so much better when you have grown and picked it yourself dosn't it .. I bet your dad had a big grin on his face :o))

Awwww Amy. I hope he did ( tear in my eye). Guess what, we had strawberries and cream to follow too, lol. However, mine were Aldi strawberries - I must grow some next year.

Dawn, if you buy your plants this year, you'll get a decent crop to pick for several deserts next year, we did this last year, and we're picking some lovely strawbs now..
