Supersize parsnip

I'll need an even bigger fork if there are more like this one.

Early Autumn Offerings

I'm pleased with my first attempt at growing sweetcorn and given the wet summer was surprised that the plants produced decent sized cobs. Starting on an Autumn clear up and making some changes to the layout so I picked the remaining cobs this morning.Cooked some as a starter this evening.The pale unripe cobs taste as nice as the golden ones ,but this might be due to the added salt,pepper and butter!

The red chard is still going strong.One of my favourite ways to cook it is with (Nicola) potatoes and puy lentils.
Last night's leftovers were baked with fresh chorizo sausage to produce a variant on toad in the hole.
