Remember this...



Then this...



Well it is no more.. I ate it..



I was out picking the veggies to cook for dinner went over to have a look at it as there was a crow around they pick at our tomatoes when they are nice and red so I felt it and it dropped off the branch so of course I ate it. It was soft and juicy but could have done with just a tad more sweetness, mind you I have tasted a lot worse...

My first middle of Winter Nectarine..

Oh Yes.. I have done that before Tessa when eating a apple..
Now I cut and slice all my fruit should do the same with the veggies.

Because one day recently I was munching on a small leaf of lettuce I had just washed and it taste like the soil so I spat it into the sink and there was the remains on a slug

I must have rinsed my mouth out about a dozen times then had a couple of spoons of yogurt probably mind over matter but it took awhile to convince my mind or would that be the taste buds that the slug was not in my mouth anymore.

Not fair - nectarines in winter You will have me drooling soon

Yuk about the slug

Knowledge is knowing a tomato is a fruit, wisdom is knowing not to use it in a fruit salad.

A ounce of common sense is worth more than a ton of intelligence.
