Harvest Festival.
Isn't it wonderful when someone comes to see you with a beautiful bouquet of flowers?!
Yes, but even even better is when they bring you your own Harvest Festival!!!! OMG! Louise came for lunch on Monday and we hadn't seen each other for an AGE and I was sooooo pleased she didn't bring flowers!!!
Isn't this so beautiful?! It even made me feel a certain autumnal joy....no mean feat since I've been a liittle melodramatic lately,mourning the end of summer.......
Look at these beautiful beans! What are they and what do you do with them more to the point! I'll have to look them up in my big book of food, but if anyone has any idea or indeed any recipes including them, do let me know. The roasting and soup-making that has been going on at mine has reached fever-pitch, and I don't want these beauties to spoil before I have a chance to do them justice.....
I think I must've flicked something on my beautiful new Canon G9 (hope you've noticed my photos have got a little better!), as my pictures seem smaller today...hmmmm....belated thanks to Jon by the way for opening up my camera queries to a forum from which I made my choice!!

They're borlotti beans. I have recipes for borlotti ratatouille, sweet and sour b beans, borlotti hummus, 3 bean soup, b beans with sage, b bean brandade. All from Sarah Raven's Garden Cookbook. It's a fab book. If you don't want to buy it, email me and I'll forward the recipes. Could you add me to your mailing list: axrp12@dsl.pipex.com
I tagged you!!!
Jackie, I've just added you to the mailing list! Borlottis are beautiful! I love the sound of the borlotti hummus, the 3 bean soup, and I don't know what a brandade is but I'd love to find out!! If you wouldn't mind sending me the recipes to madame@shopatmaisonb.com I'd be super-grateful!
July Stars - do I just answer the questions and tag three more? x
RE that camera thing - I want one now too :) (great photos btw)
Get one Jon! You need it, it's FANTASTIC!
