Cherries and some new chickens

I've gone a bit mad with the photos in this blog, and the first one is of some of the lovely fresh cherries and gooseberries that I picked earlier today, I think it's time for me to make some cherry pie! I'm picking cherries everyday now and if I can stop eating them then I will definitely make a pie (or two) before the weekend. 

Freshly picked fruit from my plot - do I get some commission David for my AGA product placement?

Since my last entry on Friday I have been rather busy, and I had a very enjoyable trip to London on Saturday to see The Wizard of Oz at the Palladium with the family, it was amazing, we had great seats and it gets 10 out of 10 from me!

Sunday was glorious, and we had our first real taste of summer, it was also a day of rest after all of the walking on Saturday, although I did find time to rustle up a little something for lunch using a couple of pieces of Dexter sirloin steak.

On Monday I went to market as Annette & Gavin were taking some geese to sell, I loved it, it was over at Stoneleigh Park, and not only did Gavin treat me to breakfast, but I came home with 2 new Rhode Island red chickens as well ... they are settling in nicely!

There is lots to do on the plot and the rest of the week will be busy, although I will be sneaking off to meet David for a coffee at lunchtime tomorrow.
