Thursday 5th August 2010 – Look what I had for tea tonight.

home grown potatoes les guis virlet puy de dome franceYes, a pile of spuds. And all grown with my own fair hands too. And when I finish off this tin of veg I opened the other day I’ll be on the home-grown beans and carrots, because my vegetable garden has now suddenly sprung into action after long last.

The beans have gone berserk and are producing all over the place and a sample carrot that I pulled up looked quite promising too.

The potatoes tasted really nice with some (home-grown) mint sprinkled into the water. It’s definitely so rewarding having your own garden and growing your own food.

Apart from that, today I’ve done … errrr … badger all. And I mean that too. I’ve had a day off. I’ve been working hard on that perishing roof for a couple of weeks and so I reckoned that I’ve earned it. Tomorrow I have to go to Riom to discuss health insurance.
