Courgettes

Welcome to two new followers!

Don't take your eyes off these crops. - had to put 2 giant marrows on the compost heap today and there were still a dozen in the kitchen.

My recipe likes so far this season are

Courgette and Stilton soup = good way to use up the "marrow" ones that got away!  Hint don't add too much water, it is better thick!

Courgettes sliced and spiced and used as a topping on mince and tomatoes mix

Sliced little courgettes fried in butter with a few chunks of bacon and a slice of a large tomato; drained on kitchen paper then grate cheese over it and put under grill. 

Went with bi coloured pink sweet peas today!

I have been evaluating my garden picks, using by"eye" scale based on what you would buy on the market in those £1 bowls. So far it has recorded a value of
April    £30
May    £45
June    £55
July    £90

My husband has sold some bunches of sunflowers at the gate and made £10!!  Enough for next car parking fees at the beach and an ice cream.
