Salad days

This pic is taken from a city garden. It is a little garden on the side of the fashion-pharmacist's house and it has enough lettuce to feed a small army.

After a day in the sun we had a salad with roasted eggplant/aubergine, steamed cauliflower, tomatoes and olives. The fresh garden salad and all of its toppings tasted delicious!

Home gardens are definitely the way to go...I was very surprised at how large the lettuce was already and how many of them there were.

The garden already had loads of bulb and spring onions and the tomatoes were just starting to creep up their poles...will have to go back for fresh tomato salad soon.

Am going to try and make coffee ice cream and will report back :)
