summer is here!

School is now officially done for the summer! no more running round looking for uniform, finding homework or dashing out the door for half 8 in the morning (well ok maybe still the last one when its a mummy-work day!).
the allotment is producing really well just now. unfortunately we eat everything just about as soon as it is picked and i keep forgetting to take photos, but yesterday for example we had peas fresh out of the pod, new potatoes cooked with mint, salad leaves, radishes, beetroot, courgette - and then a few things for dessert, redcurrants, gooseberries and raspberries. and some lovely flowers to cut and decorate the house. i love summer!
