It’s that time of year…

It’s that time of year when, after waiting eagerly for some fresh home-grown produce, we get overwhelmed, in this case with climbing beans and courgettes (zucchini). Last week was even worse because Little One and I were away (and Big One is away somewhere else) so my partner was all by himself eating beans and courgettes every day! We are back now and needed to catch up a bit so as well as eating plenty of vegetables for dinner I also made some loaves of courgette bread and a batch of courgette and chocolate chip cookies – which Little One loves, even though she hates courgettes in general! So that’s used up a good few of the stockpile, especially as I have had a couple of visitors so was able to feed some to them. Now I just need to use up some beans in interesting ways.
