Weekend Photos - New Additions

Above are some baby chilli plants from Angela - these will live inside I think and should make for some lovely spicy dinners

Two new variants of tomato plant - one of these is the massive beefsteak variety :D

And some of my own additions - on the left we have courgettes coming through and on the right my second (far more sensible) sowing of runner beans.

Cake!

From This...

Whilst not strictly made with produce from my own garden I think this still qualifies for a mention here - this is the chocolate and courgette cake that I made to celebrate passing my latest round of ACCA exams.  I used this recipe from the BBC Good Food website which calls for two courgettes both of which were donated from other peoples' gardens - a lovely yellow one from Angela and a more traditional green one from Domo at work.

To This!

It was a blissfully easy cake to cook and was delicious - much less rich than your average chocolate cake and with a lovely spongey texture to it, almost like a brownie but much lighter!
