Silly Season

With sunshine comes the silly season! I predict that each evening's conversation for the next few weeks won't vary much from "Beans with that AGAIN dear?" or "Tomatoes tonight...for a change".

The long awaited summer (ahem...fingers crossed) is bringing with it a glut of beans and all the tomatoes changing at once. I can see them now - they've all been hanging back until now and then BOOM time to ripen!! At least with both tomatoes and beans the freezer comes in very handy or it would if it was empty...hence the manic manufacturing of rhubarb crumble, defrosting of blueberries for breakfast (yeugh - beloved husband can have those...what on earth was I thinking about when I bought them??) and using up of ancient stock which probably could do with being used up anyway! Will there be enough space in the freezer or will we need to buy a new one? Only time will tell.
