It certainly did, and more in the freezer! One happy bunny.
This little lot made a fab asparagus soup - yummy. Thanks to the @punk-allotmenteer.bsky.social for the suggestion. Delicious and soooo easy to make.

Sounds idyllic.
House hunting in Wales. It's beauty is breaking!
Brilliant idea - thanks so much for that.
The asparagus is romping away nicely. Realised that it doesn't freeze particularly well. Any ideas for preserving or cooking gratefully received. Only so many quiches the family can eat. 😂
Looking good!

Love 'your dead to me' always learning something.
Your prepped veg looks yummy. We have 3 left from last year & like you found they stored really well over the winter.
Spent half an hour today watching this little thing wriggling its way across the greenhouse floor. Time well spent methinks. 😂
It might be messy - but in my eyes this is a wonderful sight!!
Stay safe!

So lucky to have this view right on my doorstep. Everyone needs a little moment of perfection in their day 😌
A beautiful sight!

I take Vit D, just the stuff from Boots - often wonder if I shouldn't up the dose though. BTW those crocuses look beautiful.
Went to clear a blocked drain today and found a surprise guest - a beautiful newt! 🦎
Thankfully he was alive and is now safely rehomed by the pond where he belongs.
Note to self: always put the drain cover back on… lesson learned!
Trying these for the first time - 'lipstick' early sweet peppers from 'Real Seeds'. They're looking pretty good so far 🤞🏼
Just couldn't resist taking this one. I'm surprised he allows us to share his house 😊😼
That's really helpful @royandtanyaorganic.bsky.social thanks so much!
That looks amazing - you might be right our washer is quite old, so perhaps it's time for an upgrade.
Believe it or not this rickety old font path has been pressure washed twice! Any suggestions gratefully received.
