Mega Fennel

I decided to pull out one of our fennel bulbs today as we were having a BBQ. It didn't look like the fennel you get in the shops. For a start it was 3" long and the bulb was longer and thinner. But, after a bit of slicing, seasoning and grilling on the bbq, it became a delicious accompaniment to chicken and potatoes!

Happy Weekend!

Not much to report today, so here's a happy duck!

Tennis and Barbecue Weekend

Great for the tennis and Grate for the BBQ! ;-)

Rain Didn't Stop Play :-)

BBQ Weekend?

Fingers crossed the rain stays away!

To BBQ or not to BBQ?

Rain? Sunshine? Thunder? It must be another barbecue weekend :-)

Summer Sunshine

Maybe I shouldn't have spent 4 hours working out in the sun this afternoon. I'm glowing now!
Still, bring on the BBQ's this weekend :-)

The Rush to Burn Sausages

The first proper BBQ day of the year? Will there be any sausages left on the supermarket shelves by late afternoon?

Sunny Weekend

What to do? It's BBQ weather! :-)

Heat wave

August already. Did we all blink and miss July completely? Or just fall through a rift in the curtain of time? Either way, where's the bloomin' sunshine! The barbie's going rusty!

Gazebo Time!

I finally got my mega-file uploaded so it's in the hands of the printer now..... In the meantime, it's so nice outside, I've put up a mini gazebo to prepare for the obligatory barbecue's this weekend!
