I've got this dream. One day I want to own my own house with a small garden. Nothing too fancy, but in the garden there will be some fruit canes (raspberries definitely), fresh herbs, a big table for entertaining, a BBQ and a wood fired oven. It will be a wonderful place to relax with a book, glass of wine, great food and be a great venue to have friends round on a summer's evening.
Yesterday on the first night of my holiday I helped my dad pick some blackberries from the garden. It was a little part of the dream....
Must be heaven, so much soft fruit, so little time...
ReplyDeleteHey, how long are you back for? In London at all?
ReplyDeleteGo with the dream Richard, sounds like a good one. Would love to be sitting at that big table as well. Loving the new look of the blog! Got back from Wellington today, talk about an eating marathon!
ReplyDeleteooooh, fresh berries!
ReplyDeleteOoooo picking fresh berries! I remember when our old house had raspberries and blackberries, it was always so much fun! I'd like to come to your dream house =) Enjoy your holiday.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful berries! I miss picking all the wild berries in Finland!
ReplyDeletei love going berry picking! your dream sounds awesome
ReplyDeleteI have a similar dream too! And if I didn't live in bloody expensive Sydney I might be able to afford a house with a productive garden in a decent suburb close to the city! :)
ReplyDeleteI'm definitely having a mulberry tree. I had one as a kid and I had a ball of a time!
Missing having a garden, missing that garden in South Moreton....just managed to kill off my coriander from the farmer's market...it didn't like the shady balcony......
