Asparagus season is here

Our regular Sunday morning trip to St Chinian market today had lots of locally-grown asparagus available. The season is slightly later this year due to a colder and wetter spring than normal and, as the season doesn't last long, we make the most of it while it's here. So, it's asparagus with everything.

The weather has turned very summery so we've spent much more of the weekend than we intended in the garden and just sitting by the pool admiring our surroundings! We haven't ventured in the pool just yet, as the water temperature is only 20C, but perhaps next week... We're back to the vacuuming and skimming tasks of pool maintenance.
