Dear Mother Nature/Higher Power/Whom It May Concern,

It's NOT that I don't appreciate your Bounty. I seriously do. I love having a ready supply of fresh, organic veg. But...



do they really all have to come at once regardless of sowing times? I'm drowning under a mountain of mixed metaphors produce here...

I love cauliflower, I really do. Here's a cauliflower:



It's the size of a soccer ball.

I have six of them sitting in my kitchen, waiting to get bagged up and frozen.

I'm also dealing with the Euro mountain of peas, broad beans, carrots, lettuce (what the hell is here to do with lettuce?), strawberries and courgettes (zucchini).

And I'm balefully eying up the raspberries, broccoli, syboes (spring onions, scallions), early onions (red and white) that won't keep that well, cabbage and salad potatoes.

And please don't get me started on the plums...

::sigh:: Summer has its drawbacks.

And the weather's shite too :-(

I don't actually measure the cups out myself. I just fill the large bowl with them. If you do measure, I'd just scoop it up.

Scoop up, check. I can do that. :-)

I think this is going to be tomorrow's project.
