I've got two new recipe books... I'm going to look up a summery soup of some sort shortly. Need to decide what I'm making so I can choose which bottle to open

ooh I could just eat that. Nothing wrong with good wholesome food like egg and chips

I agree especially when its eggs from your own ducks/hens and chips from organic and local tatties. Even the tommie ketchup is homemade from last years tomato glut.

We are having some variation on eggs, spinach, spuds and milk, as that's what I have. Either spinach and ricotta pancakes, pasta or quiche if I get to it in time. possibly with the addition of some salmon.
The fridge has just reminded me that garlic bread is an option, too.

homemade mutton burgers with garlic and chilli on the BBQ, absolutely delicious A bit on the roaring fat fire in places but that's what a big BBQ is for.

Not exactly a "summery soup" as such, but I made sweetcorn and potato chowder last night and it was rather good

Chowder sounds like powder and has always put me off it. Silly I know.

We had garlic soup at Y Caban just outside Llanberis at one of their buffet evenings. First time I've had it and it was glorious. Hope yours turns out at least as good.

O.H. has finally mastered the rabbit trap so we had bunnyburgers with home grown spuds and salady bits.

What type of trap is this?

It's a live catch trap I got from Charlies in Aberystwyth---I never had much success with it---but my husband has taken it over and sets and baits it on their usual runs and is being pretty successful.
