A hot start to the challenge week

Day one - I eagerly headed out at 7 am to harvest what I could before another day of 40 degree heat killed my babies.

While there has been slim pickings on the potato front I am doing OK in other areas - though I may be rationing my big tomatoes.

Below is a shot of this morning's harvest, which includes very full purple climbing beans, some large zucchini and squash, ripe cucumbers, a long sweet pepper and a good collection of tomatoes (mostly of the cherry variety - Truss Sweet the pick of these)
