Well 2 jars sealed. One EXPLODED in the saucepan. One failed to seal.

Husband moved the pan in the 5 minutes between switching hob off and removing the jars 😱🤯🤯🤯😱😱 So I blame him 🤦‍♀️

Canning some tomato sauce… Not used to doing it on induction hob yet 😱

First time re-using these Superb lids I bought in USA last summer. Fingers crossed 🤞

Such a pretty flower has appeared in my polytunnel … Great Hairy Willow Herb

But it appears to be another rhizome matt forming pain in the butt 🙄

Our new damson tree (merryweather) has huge fruit on it. Bigger than our cic plums. Is this normal?

Our old damsons were 1/2 this size or less!

Not a bad collection from a quick wander round garden this afternoon between rain showers.

No more courgettes 😢

FINALLY a big picking of tomatoes 🍅 The Black Russian have split more than the others but I think that’s because my neighbour didn’t pick them ….

Just tested pizza wheel bites… delicious & easier to cook than hundreds of flat tortilla pizzas I’d need for 2 teenagers & hungry husband at dinner time

Any other ideas beyond chicken stuffed wraps + salad please?

I darent even count the number of out of date tortilla wraps I’ve just discovered

Where are all the #foodwaste warriors on here???

Just found a MOUNTAIN of out of date tortilla wraps. I need dinner ideas please ….

Suspiciously no mould so might rethink buying more of this type 😱

One thing that is happy growing and thriving this year is the sweetcorn… So pleased with the pollination as have had issues in past.

ADVICE PLEASE

I have a hate hate relationship with hozelock. It leaks, connections pop off, it leaks, teeth wear out. It’s endlessly frustrating

Has anyone tried Quikhose as an alternative?
