I learned a new word today: 'Garlic Scape', which I know as 蒜苔 in Chinese. My little man and I spotted some along one of our usual walks and decided to do a bit of foraging. Every year, we wait until this time to go hunting for these so we can taste and savour this sweet crunchy veg; it's perfect when stir fired with homemade bacon!

The benefit of having a bank holiday is being able to catch and enjoy the end of spring. We went to a local park and collected the last bit of wild garlic sprouts, and make it into yummy dumplings. They were super tasty, gone within seconds once cooked! 😋

Little one got home from school and asked, “Mummy, can I have some fruit, please?”

“Of course!” I said—only to discover the fridge was completely empty. Not a berry or apple in sight.

Cue minor panic… then a hopeful peek outside. And there they were—gleaming in the garden. What a relief!

There’s something quietly magical about growing your own food. Even the smallest harvest feels like a triumph.

A delicious treat for in the hot weather. Liang gao (凉糕）, made from rice and corn flour, served with caramelised brown sugar sauce and perfect after a few hours in the fridge. A very much loved treat from my childhood. Actually, even now it still is!
