My lime tree has been producing so many limes for a while now and there's still quite a few on the tree and it's flowering again. Just about every meal has lime included somehow, even if it's only in some soda water to drink!
Lately I don't bother to pick the limes until they start to colour. Makes it easier to see them in the tree.
We are eating some veg out of the garden too, although I did stock up at the markets this weekend just to make sure we have some variety and because my garden can't supply enough. One day........
I found a couple of capsicums amongst my chillies. I had two plants but I thought they were both chillies. Pleasant surprise.
I'm making pretty good bread lately (sourdough) and tonight I did a free form loaf and it looks pretty good! I use khorasan (kamut) flour, which is an old variety of wheat, a bit like spelt, but I think it makes a much nicer loaf than spelt. I use a rye starter, which is just about impossible to ruin and just about always comes up nice and bubbly.
Yum that bread looks great, I can't wait to get to NZ and get back to sourdough making.
ReplyDeleteI've been really enjoying my sourdough - I've got it worked out and mix it in the bread machine, and keep it in for the first rising and then take it out for the second rising and then bake it. I can have fresh bread for lunch, which I think is pretty good. Although it probably means that its not really getting that long rise that it needs. A good starter is very important though! I've got a great one - it's a rye starter and works really well.
