A midweek visit

Popped to the plot on Tuesday evening essentially just to water as it's been a bit dry recently. But the Rhubarb looked rather good. So I did a quick harvest.

Cleaned chopped and dropped into sugar overnight, the sugar pulled all the juice out of the rhubarb. Add a load of grated ginger and a few lemons boil for a couple of hours to reduce the moisture content and lo... the first batch of this years Rhubarb and Ginger Jam.

Meanwhile down the plot things are starting to look a little better. The replacement sweetcorn has sprouted.

With that and the slow recovery of the frost affected Courgettes, things are starting to look up.
