    Nothing out - 3 bags of homegrown dwarf beans and gave away lots of runner beans to neighbours.

    We had runner beans as though they were asparagus for a starter - steamed with a dob of butter, some grated cheese and salt and pepper - delish!

    Followed by homegrown salad with shop bought coleslaw, cheese and pickle (all cupboard staples!)

    YS pork chops with runners, carrots and potatoes when DS comes over - all homegrown

    Eat the YS pork chops with homegrown beans and carrots for supper yesterday. It will be make-do fridge clearance now until Wednesday and then a bit of a break for us. I must reorganise our freezer so that Son can see a selection of ready meals as he is house and cat-sitting for us and while he might pick stuff, he is unlikely to anything but freeze it!
