Gardening Days - Summer Food - Friday, 21st June 2014

I hadn't realised how long it's been since last writing something here.  A month and not a word from me to you!  Just too busy in the garden to realise!

Gardening is like that of course.  You go out with the idea of spending an hour, pulling out the weeds, deadheading the roses, or redoing  a lawn edge with with your new edger and, before you know it, a whole day has gone.  You come indoors hot, a trifle hot and flustered,with dirt under your finger nails and, frankly, no hope of writing;  with supper to make, shower thoughts and early to bed uppermost in your mind, writing is not an obvious option!

Back to the kitchen, eventually, to make Eton Mess with garden-grown fresh strawberries; not from my own plants, unfortunately, but never mind that!

Sliced strawberries, extra thick cream and baby meringues from Sainsbury's for a delicious 10-minute pudding - totally scrumptious and more-ish -

clear glass for a good view....

ready for eating with Sainsbury's Lemon Shortbread Biscuits (no nut content!)


Now - where did I put my secateurs?
