Feeling very pleased with myself tonight. Tea was completely homegrown.
Chinese red cooked loin of pork, freshly dug new potatoes, carrots and a mixture of peas,beans,courgettes and cabbage. Followed by elderflower and gooseberry sorbet. :yum:
Gives me a real buzz and makes all the hardwork worth it. Also think it impressed our daughters new boyfriend whom we met for the first time tonight when she invited him for tea. :thumbsup:

Well done - it's the greatest feeling :garden:
For us it's roast hogget with all those same lovely veg and fruit, or eggs with salad and new potatoes :hungry:
-
That is quite an achievement - great stuff. I guess it is what most of us smallholders aim for except on nights when we are too shattered to bother gathering supper.
I made a veg curry last night and gathered the veg from the garden last thing - ate at 21:45 but it was a cracker.

Definitely taste better. Even with just a garden, on Sunday we had home produced roast goat with home grown French beans, followed by freshly picked strawberries.
-
Excellent job. :thumbsup:

Yep, we had roast pork, sugarsnap peas, parsnip thinnings, roast Anya potatoes and Yorkshire pudding followed by gooseberry crumble. All except the flour and the dairy was home produced :thumbsup:
-
There is such a sense of pride eating home grown :yum: and of course there is no better taste either :excited:
Shame our two boys prefer raw fruit and veg so I need to be up sharp in a morning to beat them to the pickings ::)
What better welcome for your daughters new boyfriend ( and gives him a taste of what you expect from him :innocent: )

Sounds tasty :yum:
