Monday Harvest – 1st July 2013

I am very excited to report that this week saw our first ever egg.  A lovely small, slightly speckled, one:

I’m not sure which hen laid it and neither she nor any of the others have laid once since (3 days ago) but it was still extremely exciting.  We ate it, in combination with a couple of eggs I bought at the Farmers Market, in French Toast.

Otherwise my harvests were a little on the meagre side.  A few Tahitian Limes for guacamole:

Any number of handfuls of lettuce leaves for salad and sandwiches;

And the usual herbs, spring onions and the occasional chilli:

That’s it from this corner of the world for this week, next week I’m hoping for a little more variety but in the meantime head of to Daphne’s to see what she and a host of others have harvested this week.
