Just a bright and cheery ruffled Daffodil from my garden to brighten the Bluesky newsfeed.

Happy Saturday, everyone!

It truly is a snowball kind of day in #pei - a good day to make Snowball Cookie Balls.

Harvested my “carrot crop” this week. Some of them got up to some nonsense underground over the summer but most behaved and grew normal-like carrot shapes. Carrots are mostly Chardonnay and Napoli varieties. Lovely and sweet. Time now to tidy up the garden for winter.

My plum tomatoes were super slow to ripen this year and were very small. Finally got enough ripe, all at the same time, to make a batch of tomato sauce. Recipe is on my website at myislandbistrokitchen.com/2023/09/12/h...

My #gardens did very well this year though the sweet peppers and tomatoes have been somewhat slow to ripen. The peppers are large and healthy and worth waiting for. Have to wait a bit for enough ripe plum tomatoes to make sauce. #recipedeveloper #foodblogger #peifoodblogger
