More Bounty From the Garden

     Considering I only have a small patch of garden set aside for growing food, things are producing well. Today it was raspberries, haricot beans (my first attempt at growing them) and a large scallion for tomorrow's breakfast omelet.

The raspberries will be my dessert tonight. I have been nibbling a few each day but this is the first substantial picking. I will have the beans tonight too, with a lamb chop, mint sauce and new potatoes. Yum!!
 
 Big excitement today! I finally got a haircut after 8 months. It is such a relief to have a neat head of hair again. My hairdresser has been worked off her feet this week (the first week of opening) so I am very glad she managed to fit me in. I just hope I don't have to go so long before the next cut!

    1. The haricot beans, which were purple, turned green when I cooked them. That was a surprise but they tasted fine. I made rhubarb bread with rhubarb from the garden today.

  2. Food from your own garden always tastes way better than shop bought.
    I can imagine how happy you are now to have a good haircut. Mine hasn't been done since February and the style has now totally disappeared.

    1. I kind of miss my long locks but they were a nuisance to take care of.
