Squeezing in a bit of #preserving in today, these #allotment eggplants needed something done to them so I am trying Chunky Chunky Melenzane* — Italian style melanzane sott’olio, similar to: https://memoriediangelina.com/2020/08/08/melanzane-sottolio-eggplant-cured-in-oil/

* To the tune of The Whitlams Chunky Chunky Air Guitar 🎸🍆

 Next up is bread and butter cucumbers.

But pause a moment to admire the beauty of this little #allotment "Autumn Champion" onion.

What a little stunner.

Cannot believe, esp in this heat, I am already planning the autumn allium planting. Started putting a Sutton's order together and baulked at the £55 basket I got to. Need to rethink the strategy on that.
