leaves-garden

There is not too much left in the veg garden, apart from the last of the runner beans, courgettes, and tomatoes, but from lawn and borders, there are still quite a few leaves to make a salad.

  • Sorrel – a big leafed kind of herb. I thought I pulled it up last year, but it regrew in August, to my surprise. A neighbour gave it. I was pleased it grew back.
  • Dandelion leaves
  • Tomatoes

  • Flowers of Borage
  • Swiss Chard
  • Rocket

The chair collapsed under my colossal weight and I unceremoniously fell within the chair. It was comedy gold, but can a funny act be funny, if no-one is there to see the joke? I wasn’t laughing! (It is like the Zen koan, if you tell a joke in the forest but no one is there to hear it, was it really a joke?) …
