Cupani sweetpeas doing ok, with a hope of more seeds for next year

Spathe.

I forgot to mention that a good amount of fresh mint is an excellent addition. I hope you enjoy it.

A favourite summer salad, super thin slices of zucchini bathing in lemon juice and a little salt, to be joined in an hour or so by lettuce, shavings of parmigiano and good oil.
