So according to the weather forecast it's supposed to be 23 degrees and partly cloudy tomorrow. Considering we're almost into the middle of October and close to that dreaded time when there's no denying that winter is upon us, ie when the clocks go back, 23 degrees and partly cloudy is tropical!
We planted the Hungarian grazing rye in one of the vegetable plots last weekend and we can already make out some brown shoots peering through the soil. Are they our cover crops or simply weeds? It has been a very rainy week so it's no wonder something is shooting up out of the soil.
Courgettes, tomatoes and peppers are still fruiting and for some reason, we are STILL waiting for the apples to ripen. So much for that homemade custard recipe I promised a dear friend! Becoming a gardener is teaching me the art of patience...not easy.
So...heavenly homemade custard coming soon...

I'm in the middle of enjoying my lunch at the moment so i thought i drop you a comment. Totally unrelated to your Hungarian grazing rye! But i'm having homemade veggie soup with dumplings. As you are also a big fan of soups, i thought i say its worth making dumplings to go with it. You can buy veggie suet now, and then you just add flour, water and whatever herbs you have at hand. Its the ultimate comfort food. Still waiting for photos BTW....
I like the sound of the dumplings. Will definitely have to investigate that further especially now that the weather is turning colder. Thanks for the suggestion!
And photos are starting to make their way into the blog. Finally! I've added one photo to an older post and about to add some more...
