Not so much King Edwards as…

Little Prince’s first planting in the garden has come to fruition.  Whilst we were away, the potato plants we put in during March have flowered and died.  And so, without much hope, the boys dug in and pulled out the plants.  Obviously, Princess Mummy was supervising from a deckchair, and at one point, thought it was raining spuds! But no, Prince Daddy had given Little Prince control of the fork and Little Prince was gaily digging up his tiny – and not so tiny – potatoes.

So, from 4 jacket potatoes that had gone to “eyes” in the cupboard, (that I’d let Little Prince plant to keep him quiet) we now have a whole bucket of potatoes.  Enough that we are providing the roasties and the boiled for Queen Nanna’s famous Sunday Dinner.  Famous as she holds an open house – 6 immediate family, plus spouses and offspring, plus any friends that drop in.  Good times!
