Its been a good week on the allotment. i really feel we are achieving things now. we've taken some gravel down and laid 3 paths. Ive moved all the random strawberry plants into a proper strawberry bed, planted lots of seeds, and dug over another bed ready for something. hubby has built me a lovely little raised bed with some scrap wood which i'm going to plant lettuces and other small salad crops into. i must remember to take the camera own and snap a few photos of the progress.but the best thing about the allotment just now - the rhubarb had grown high enough to nab a few stalks from. we had rhubarb crumble yesterday, and rhubarb pie today. and it was YUMMY! nothing quite beats the taste of the first rhubarb of the season :)

Oooh yummy rhubarb, I had my first picking from the garden last weekend. Stephen doesn't like it so I tend to just stew mine and have it with yoghurt. When the girls' are home they like it so we have crumble and pie then. I want to try making jam this year too
Enjoy

That looks lovely Annie but makes me feel very guilty as we have rhubarb in the garden and I've not made a crumble. Note to self: get into the garden!!!
Thanks for the inspiration :0)

Mmm. You've inspired me to finally use that rhubarb my grandma gave me! If I'm lucky I'll enough ripe strawberries from our small patch to kick it up a notch!
