Geraniums and garden produce






Ok so this lovely jumble of old seed packet postcards is my little homage to your lovely mosaics! I dont think I have mastered the technique though!
And now for the geranium bit



You probably remember I mentioned that MIL is a little bit gifted in the world of geraniums, well I thought it was about time I showed you! This is her conservatory which is positively dripping with geraniums and other lovely things......................


Anyone for a G & T?

Here is the view from the outside looking in......


Back to the Garden Produce side of things. Last year there were positively no plums! This year well have a look for yourselves....................




Meanwhile outside the back door a nice crop of runner beans is busy scrambling up it's wigwam, I can see the bumble bees buzzing on and off the orange and white flowers from my desk.




Tonights little mini harvest....mmm I think a summer vegetable quiche......................................



Here we go, yum


with some of these sliced and drizzled with good olive oil

All served up in a cosy cosy kitchen

Call in for tea any time, See you soon x

  4. I am absolute pants at mosaics - it seems to take me 'forever' to try and put it all together then when I do post my efforts it all comes out wrong!! I think you have done a wonderful job.

    Loving the old seed packet postcards, enormous crop bounty and conservatory too.
