Now that is cause for a celebration dinner, hope they taste as good as they look, well done Pita, pleased for you...

Those potatoes look lovely :o) Well done .

just the potatoes on a plate with runny butter would be my choice!! yummy!

Well done,Pita..no taste like your very first ones...enjoy,they will be beautiful :o)

Thank you everyone! We had some for dinner and........ wait for it.............. "WOW!!! - yum-a-daisical!!" They just melted in our mouths - the other half sat there just smiling at me!! What more could a amaturer gardener want?

Lucky me, happy me!! :D

(I was thinking I could dig up the lawn and just plant spuds!!) hee hee x

They look very nice. Congratulations :o) lol

Well done and congratulations Pita , there's nothing nicer than digging up your very own home grown spuds , the smiles said it all :o))

just sat here smiling because I could actually see Chris's face across the table smiling,

Do you think you will be able to scrounge a few for your delicious 'Vals' Pasties , Val ? I must make some more soon my frozen supply is getting low .

we have run out now Amy, I stand no chance scrounging her potatoes she lives 200 miles away,think we are due for a visit to her.

Oh What a shame Val ,never mind you might get to taste them on your next visit !

I very much hope so, she has done well has'nt she

I think she has done brilliantly well Val , does Chris help in the garden ?

yes they are both keen gardeners, Chris re designed the garden for her last year so she could grow veg, I was most impressed when I saw what she achieved last year, looks like she is doing better this year,

"Hello!" I'm here - watching you discuss me mother! hee hee

My spuds were yummy - I feel like a proper gardener now as last year was tomatoes, lettuce and runner beans! We've gone the whole hog this year! Best you get and visit soon so you can take some spuds back for your pasties! :D

Yay for potatoes!!! :0)

x

Oh no. where did you pop up from, you are a clever girl, I keep thinking of Chris smiling across the table, how is everything else doing. I am trying to decide when to come down,

You best come down before you know who eats all the spuds! LOL - bless him, he said not one word when he had a mouth full of spud - just grinned at me! :0)

My beans are filling out now and full of flowers, have curly kale, purple sprouting, garlic, onions, leeks, salad stuff, beets, spinach, cabbage, tomatoes, chilli's, peppers, herbs coming out my ears and strawberries - can't remember what else! It's all squeezed in to the 2m x 3m veg plot! I'm going to need an allotment soon! :D

xx

have you applied for an allotment, don't think Chris will agree to digging the lawn up, anyway I would have no where to sit,you are growing an awful lot down there, it sounds great, we are under water here again,

Ohh no! - its not raining here - had a shower and its threatening but nothing yet! No, he won't let me dig the lawn up... yet! (hee hee)

We did apply for an allotment about 4 years ago! You'd die of hunger waiting! lol :D

sent you PM, lucky you no rain, did you see the pic I put on of the remnants of the roses

cant beat home grown spuds pita, i lov ethem and im a spud addict haha

They are yummy and I'm not a spud addict! hee hee :D

You sound as though you could keep a green grocers suppied with all your produce Pita .. :o))

LOL!!! No Amy - not in such a small space, I only grow enough for the two of us and still thats too much sometimes! Some of my veg are the mini variety too! I tried to do the things we'll eat otherwise its a waste isn't it?

:D x

Yes you're right Pita ,we had a whole row of lettuce that went to seed I hate wasting it luckily out daughter is bringing her menagerie of animals over to be looked after while they go on holiday I expect the guinea pigs / hampsters lizards or whatever she brings will eat some of it ...

Good idea - I do that with the in-laws chickens - its nice to know my eggs have a direct link to my garden & kitchen waste!!
