Gathering greens

Suddenly summer is over. Well, almost. The nights are starting to draw in, and there’s a definite chill of autumn in the air. Still plenty of things to harvest in the garden though. This afternoon’s little haul was a basket full of some curly kale, runner beans and a few tomatoes to ripen on the kitchen window shelf.

The kale is destined for our morning smoothie. Hubby is not good at eating his greens, but glugs them down happily in company with banana, honey, yoghurt and almond milk in a delicious breakfast time drink.
