I did have about five varieties of chilli but red spider mite killed all the seedlings  only left with a purple one with purple fruit, a stunted purple cayenne and two apache.
Does anyone have a good recipe for Chilli jam? |

If you get a glut of courgettes which is more than likely they make a delicious soup.
This courgette and potato soup recipe by Nick Nairn is very nice. BBC - Food - Recipes - Courgette and potato soup
Didn't get home until around 8 last night so we had a curry. |

Roast pork here today.
Went strawberry picking again today so that is pud sorted!!! 
Also in the farm shop I managed to get some fresh yeast which I'm mega chuffed with as I've got a lovely bag of organic malt flour that requires the use of fresh yeast so I'll be having a go at that tonight and might even use my new loaf tin that I bought too!! |

Jez beat me to it with the mention of squid,one of me favorites done in olive oil and garlic or fried with chilli and coconut flakes.Used to scrounge some dried squid from the Chinese fireman on one of me boats,eta it like chewing gum.Sounds revolting to some maybe but its addictive and 4 billion Chinese people can't be wrong . |

Sunday lunch was really Saturday tea but... Homemade pizza (wholemeal base with seeds) tomato and garlic sauce..chorizo, wild mushrooms, red pepper, red onion, olives with buffalo mozzarella, smoked cheese and strong cheddar. Seemed to go down well and I have to cook it when Kayleigh and I go to visit Seamus later this year!!

As a child Sunday dinner was nearly always lamb, and served up spot on when the
Billy Cotton band show started, then it was two way family favorites |

We have our Sunday lunch at tea time Because the weather is so blinking miserable at the moment we're having roast beef with yorkshires, roast potatoes, cabbage, carrots and mashed swedes (these are from my FILs garden) - then for afters (if we can manage it LOL) I've made a blackberry and apple pie - the berries are from the brambles growing in my hedge and the apples are from my little 3in1 tree which always fall off before they ripen but hopefully they'll be OK in a pie |
