Playing, An Onion and Muffins

It was a delight at the allotment this morning to find these two chatting and playing with water while their Mum (who gave permission for this photo to be used) was tending to their plot.

We harvested some more courgettes/zucchini  from the lottie and this afternoon I made some delicious Courgette, Feta and Mozzarella Muffins using our last onion from last season.

The Muffins turned out well!

For any eagle eyed readers who know my recipes, this is a variation that I can write up if anyone would like it.

Wedding Run-through, Planting Courgettes and A New Wall

1    I spent the morning at a run-through of the Humanist Wedding I’m doing on Sunday. The whole Ceremony is going to be so beautiful – the vows written by the couple themselves, the readings they’ve chosen and the song, “Make you Feel my Love” – recently sung by Adele, but originally a Bob Dylan song – that a friend is singing for them and all in the most beautiful setting, Treassowe Manor, one of Cornwall’s Listed Buildings.

This is where the Ceremony will take place.

2    I’ve made a heap of compost and planted just one courgette plant and three seeds. I’m hoping the slugs will find the heap hard to climb!

The new wall is growing – another new planting opportunity!
