These are British sunflowers, in bloom and reminiscent of the hot sunshine of the South.
Which inspired us to have tomatoes for lunch.
Yet the apples and plums on our tree are ripening.
Later to be unforgivingly stripped.
And turned into apple and cinnamon ice-cream.
Which had followed beetroot soup (lovely colours, and v. tasty, plus easy to make).
Made some soda bread to accompany the soup.
And then thrift-ily used the left-over egg whites from the ice-cream to make meringues, with stewed plums.
Very nice, all in all. Quite looking forward to Autumn now.
