After a thunder storm and a lot of rain yesterday the garden looked good in the sun today. / Après des orages et beaucoup de pluie hier, le jardin est beau aujourd'hui.
The dwarf haricot beans Purple King are flowering – lovely mauve and purple colours.

And we ate the first courgettes of the season / et on a mangé les premières courgettes de la saison.
| Straight from the plant, to the chopping board and onto the grill with some red onions which are beginning to bolt but taste delicious grilled whole like this. |

They look very stripey! I'm looking forward to ours producing.
Those are gorgeous! I'm about three weeks behind you. The first courgettes are always such a delight. And as I slowly, inevitably grow sick of them, they get pickled for winter eating. The first pickled courgette in January is every bit as amazing as the first fresh one in June.
