How exciting is that! We harvested our first cucumber at the weekend and it tasted more delicious than any cucumber I've tasted
There are lots of flowers, so hopefully plenty more Cucumbers to follow.
I think we may start harvesting corgettes next week and we have lots of pea pods and tomatoes in the greenhouse.
I've been treated to a new camera, she's a beauty and I couldn't wait to go outside to try her out. Off to the park we went with the dogs. I love to zoom along on my scooter while the dogs run as fast as they can and chase me. I find it so invigorating, and now I can get some photos of the dogs running without it being a large blur...
I think Penny (at the front) has all 4 legs off the ground in the photo below
Imogen was about to roll down this small hill before being covered in a pile of dogs :)
Catching a breath before the walk home
I'm quite excited about my new camera and plan to take lots more photos.
Just before I go, I must show these wonderful photos of some local yarn bombing - brilliant!
Take care

Hello Cheryl, I'm happy for you that you got a new camera; I did too just recently so we're both having lots of fun. Great to see your little puppy dogs having such a good time, and congratulations on your cucumbers and all those lovely veggies still to come. There's nothing like home-grown is there! xoJoy
ReplyDeleteThank you home grown is definitely best x
DeleteIt always makes my heart glad to see dogs running free. They love it so. Enjoy the new camera -- and the fresh produce!
ReplyDeleteIt does mine too, they have so much fun together x
DeleteI'm growing cucamelons this year - not quite sure but I think they're tiny melon - shaped cucumbers !
ReplyDeleteI haven't heard of them, will have to look them up x
DeleteMmmmm fresh salad stufs ....... bet it all taste delicious and home grown better still! Love those photos of your dogs chasing you. they look such a cute crowd :-)
ReplyDeleteHave fun with your new camera!
keep well
Amanda xx
Thank you, I'm loving the new camera x
DeleteHave fun with the new camera. Your little dogs are certainly photogenic :)
ReplyDeleteThey are little cuties x
DeleteI have never grown my own cucumbers but a friend that I used to work with used to bring freshly picked ones in for us all whenever she got a glut of them! There is no taste like them. I expect the supermarket ones have been grown for the uniformity of them rather than anything else.
ReplyDeleteIt's much smaller than supermarket ones, but much tastier x
DeleteIt looks like you and your new camera are enjoying yourselves together!! Love the yarnbombing, especially the canons, it cannot be often that a cannon get's a yarny wrapping can it! xx
ReplyDeleteThey did look really good x
DeleteWow, your cucumbers are early, we haven't harvested any yet. Your dogs are so cute, lovely to see them enjoying themselves off the lead. Enjoy your new camera.
ReplyDeleteThey've been in the greenhouse and this one was a quick grower, looking forward to more though x
DeleteYou have grown some impressive vegetables x
ReplyDeleteJust having a little look round your blog, enjoying your writing. Following you now on bloglovin. Have a nice weekend x
ReplyDeleteThat's great to grow your own produce. I grew some runner beans but when I returned from holiday they had all shrivelled and died as I hadn't got anyone to water them. Lovely photos of the dogs with your new camera. X
ReplyDeleteFunny how what you call Courgettes here in the US we call Zucchini. How did that happen??? Love the photos and the puppies--how fun!
ReplyDeleteCheryl, congratulations on the new camera! I wish I'd planted some cucumbers. Next year I really must.
ReplyDeleteCheryl, looking forward to seeing photos from your new camera! My tomatoes finally started ripening, and now I have plenty. Can't wait to try my hand at cucumbers next time round!
ReplyDeleteWow that was unusual. I just wrote an extremely long comment but
ReplyDeleteafter I clicked submit my comment didn't show up.
Grrrr... well I'm not writing all that over again. Anyway,
just wanted to say great blog!
