This is what we picked yesterday from the garden in our friends' house where we are staying. [attach name=IMG_1354.JPG type=image/jpeg]177[/attach]
@Gordonb - Are those figs on the grapes? That is the one I can't figure out.
Hope there's some left when we get there,
@Gordonb!

Yup figs; I am generally not that fond of figs but these, warm still from the sun, are quite something. Rey had a small bowl of market-bought yogurt with some local honey drizzled over it and the figs ... he was making very inappropriate noises of contentment!
When we were here last July cherries and strawberries were very much in season and they were just delicious, I suppose now we are into autumn fruits.

Sadly not sure that the wonderful fruit will travel home. We bought fresh anchovies at the market this morning, about a kilo for £2 more or less, tossed half of them in seasoned flour and fried them - a squeeze of lemon ( from the garden!), some bread and salad- honestly you couldn't ask for a finer lunch![attach name=IMG_1386.JPG type=image/jpeg]179[/attach]
Oh, right! You're not back in London yet. It certainly looks like you're dining well and we're looking forward to dining with you when we're there.
BTW, what kind of wine do you like? We want to bring something for the meal and are taking requests.
I never stopped to think that they might come some other way than packed in oil in a tin!! I might be convinced to try anchovies if they were prepared this way.
