Produce Alert!


Seems I finally have my first courgette (and indeed my first ever vegetable) starting to mature. We've spent the last 3 weeks or so eating fried courgette flowers (I call them crisps in order to get my daughter to eat them. The gullibility of a 2-year-old!) and delicious as they are, I have been wondering whether I was fated to only ever get male flowers. It's the females that come with courgettes attached you see.

So here it is - apparently you harvest 2-4 days after they flower. Come on!
