Well , what a very sad week it has been , with saying good-bye to H.M.Queen Elizabeth just a few days ago . I have no words , it was all so very , very sad .
Sending my thoughts and prayers of comfort to all of her family . Especially to our new King Charles who must be feeling pretty anxious about the enormity of his new role .
Hey ! Charles , you'll be fine ! ( Use a biro ! )
Also , make sure you have some time to yourself . Put your scruffy clothes on , pull on your wellies and get out into your lovely garden and see what's going on . Let Autumn enfold you in her arms . Relax and be comforted .
What is going on in the vegetable garden ?
Well , we were forecast some rain and then that it might turn very cold . So I decided to harvest all my Butternut Squashes .
This year I grew the varieties Waltham and Hunter . They did very well on my African Keyhole Veg bed . I harvested 21 Butternuts altogether .
I brought in the largest ones to give them their two day curing on my kitchen dresser . They will all then be put up on a shelf in the shed to store over the Winter months .
As they ripen up , the skin toughens and the flavour improves .
Feeling blessed 🧡
