Today I picked and ate a good bunch of asparagus for lunch. Brilliant.

At the weekend I planted peas and Jersey Bennes and dug in the winter lupins. Thought it was time to replace the woody herbs in the herb garden (they’re 5 years old) so I bought some sage and thyme. I’ll leave the rosemary in there.

Also picked the few daffodils that are growing and stuck them in a vase. I should be a florist.
