A Very Warm Busy Harvest Time.

 

 Luisa plums coming ready right after the Billington have finished.
 
 The most perfect tomato picked so far ( after several buckets full.)
 It weighed 315 grams.
 Courgette or zuchinni has almost become a dirty word. Just so many...some getting too big by hiding.

 A large savoury scone tray bake I made at the weekend. We ate some but I cut it up and froze 3/4s. Our own tomato and tomato paste and herbs . Pity I had to buy the cheese and olives.
 I spent all this  morning cutting back the passionfruit vine which was collapsing. Hope it survives. It was my own fault for not cutting it back hard after last years crop ( of over 500 ) 

*****
 This is how far my fancy ball of wool went.
 I am joining in now the best match I could find but its the wrong ply so I am doubling it.
 I also made one cushion cover.
 Roses struggle in this heat, even with frequent watering. These buds opened in the vase. Lovely smell. Pretty face.
