to ripen tomatoes

my little kitchen drawers are just the right size to fit a seed tray, where the tomatoes can ripen. 

after a dismal, cold and wet summer, they are just sitting in the greenhouse and not ripening at all, I've been brining in a hanfull every coupleof days to ripen and eat. now i'm just about to collect in another seed tray full and that will be all of them. 

there have been some nice broad beans to munch on , they are nearly finished now. little turnips early on, and there are nice leeks waiting to get bigger before eating.

not much success with anything else this year.

the tomatoes are just starting to show a slight blush, maybe there will be one to eat at the weekend. 


Beans has been here for a year now, the greenhouse is not her favourite place, 

not comfortable enough she says. 

she is a nce wee cat, not much into cuddles but will keep you company.
