The second day of my two weeks holiday started with domestic stuff like doing my laundry and watering my flowers on the windowsill. And then we drove to our garden. We really wanted to relax, but instead, we started harvesting our potatoes.

But only from half of the field.

But the result looks good and I can't wait to taste them.

Unwashed

Washed and put out to dry.

And we planted a rosemary.

Our leek is in full bloom so we can't eat it this year but we will get some seeds for the next.



Oh, and the bumblebees love our wild oregano (sorry it is so blurry).



That's it for today. I hope you enjoyed the day in my garden.

What a wonderful garden you have created. Pretty flowers, but I'm drawn to all those lovely potatoes spread out to dry. When I could buy them, I'd get the smaller ones, boil them in their skins, then have them with butter on them. Yum! I do love potatoes in all ways, mashed, baked, also chips. *bg*

Thank you very much. Yes, the potatoes taste so great. We make Papas Arugadas with the smaller ones. We boil them in their skins in salted water and when they finished they have to dry a little, so that they have salted skin. And like you said some butter or Aioli on them. That's so yummy.
