1st Parsnips of the Season

First parnsips of the season - and what crackers they are! It took at least five minutes to excavate one, it's tap root was sooooo long. I actually had to dig down around it in order to get enough hold on it to pull it up. Brilliant! Can't wait to cook them up for Sunday dinner guests tomorrow: Split in half lengthways, roast in the oven with salt, pepper, olive oil, garlic and rosemary! Maybe a drizzle of honey towards the end. Delicious.

Soft-Fruit Trug

Daffodil bulbs, soft raspberries and a new trug to put them all in! I was in need of just the right sized collection vessel for things like tomatoes and raspberries; fruits where you only pick a few at a time as they're never ready to pick as one. SO, thanks to my friends who bought me this a a birthday pressie, along with gardener's handcream, scrub, some oak plant tags and a dibber.

Girls are great, aren't they?!
