Winter Produce



It has been raining for weeks! And weeks.

But today it was sunny and gorgeous (and freezing). So...a trip to the garden to harvest things.

I've got half a box of persimmons and silver beet and courgettes. And flowers. And a sprig of the bay tree. Quite a haul. Sooooo satisfying too.

I'm needing to pick the persimmons before they are totally ripe because last year I had a big crop. And ate about 3. Because the birds decided they were delicious. And they were.

This year I'm picking them under-ripe and ripening them up on the window sill. And leaving a few for the birds, high up where the cats won't get them.
