Saturday 2.


First half of this evening's supper. Tenderloin of pork in a lightly curried mushroom sauce, fried potatoes, AND - Tarah!!!- the first bait of asparagus of the season. Normally we would have this on its own as a starter, but Ann said that as this was going to be a light supper, and as she was going to have to rush off and serve at this evening's 'Vigil' service immediately after the first part of the meal, we'd have the asparagus as a second vegetable. I always think the first taste of a seasonal vegetable like asparagus is always the best, as this proved to be. Not sure what time the 'Vigil' is likely to end, but pudding when Ann comes home after it.
Been working in the garden this afternoon and evening putting up a bamboo cane support for the sweetpeas, runner beans, and (hopefully) the Morning Glory.
Earlier this week our very part time gardener Ken called when we were out and relocated our sink garden to its permanent position, so this evening I did a bit of rearranging it and transplanting therein a tiny yew tree I've been 'bonsai-ing' (that word doesn't look at all likely but I hope you'll be able to work it out) for some years. Hope it's happy to be moved at this time of year. We'll see.
