Two layers of stuffed cabbage leaves. Donโ€™t bother asking for the recipe as it varies and the stuffing is mostly leftovers, especially leftover bread. Real comfort food for the environmentally conscious cooks.

Iโ€™ve decided not to pull the last tomato plant because it still had flowersโ€ฆ and now this! #autumntomatoes #alessandrazecchini๐Ÿ‘จโ€๐ŸŒพ #pottedgarden #gardeningsurprise #๐Ÿ… #tomatoes #lifestyle #newzealand #gardening

From the garden: first capsicums, perfect for stewing with celery, tomatoes and basil. And two small cucumbers for sides. Love my cucumber spiralizer ๐Ÿ˜Š

Ah, and Alpine strawberries for dessert!

Lost a few tomatoes with the rain, but Iโ€™m very happy with the yellow/orange ones because the seeds came from a punnet of colourful tomatoes Iโ€™ve bought ages ago, and planted, just as an experiment. They are plum shaped and sweet.

Help!!!

Itโ€™s that time of the year again! Public enemy number one of weeds is flowering in the Waitakere ranges. I cut the flowers by the side of the road before they go to seed and spread. Please do the same, cut wild ginger flowers are beautiful in a vase, but dangerous if left out there to multiply! We removed them all from our property and we continue to weed the seedlings that spread from nearby properties into the bush.

Grown in pots on the balcony: eggplants, tomatoes and celery - small but cute, ready for the pot ๐Ÿ˜‹
