A taste of summer...


Last night we had a delicious dinner with stuff from the garden. Yesterday I picked a 4 litre basket of basil leaves and made a couple of batches of pesto. So for dinner we had pasta with pesto sauce, with a squeeze of fresh lemon, chopped up tomatoes for on top of the pesto noodles (here we have a mix of red, orange and green tomatoes!) and some freshly picked sliced cucumbers. We also had beets that I bought from the Lansdowne farmer's market, since my beets got planted late and aren't quite ready yet. It was all SO tasty! especially after eating on the Fairgrounds most of the weekend....
