    Here's the recipe P*M - the only think I wouldn't do next time is soak the cashews.

    Great looking recipe. I've printed a copy to take on hols :T

    Your ice cubes will be pretty snazzy - I've never thought of flowers in cubes but it must look gorgeous.

    See you soon, Tilly xxx

    I made the pork today, planning on doing the rice tomorrow. Though now I have tasted the pork I may just go eating.gif instead as the pork is lovely :o.

    Apparently borage flowers taste like cucumber so the ice cubes should work well with G&T and Pimms :beer:

    Miss Q is definitely broody now so I've bought hatching eggs on ebay :j

    Broad bean, courgette, feta & mint frittata with rocket salad for dinner using broad beans, courgettes, rocket and eggs from the garden :T

    The hatching eggs have arrived :j

    They were advertised as blue but are actually pale green which is a bit annoying...

    They need to rest for 24 hours before I can put them under Miss Broody.
