I Love Fresh Food

Hello all,
It a lovely afternoon, I completed my layout yesterday but it was  so nice after the rain with a breeze blowing so decide to do the sheets and towels and a bit of weeding in the garden, this morning before i wrote up my postIt is a glorious afternoon the wind has come up a little but still nice

When i saw this challenge i knew what photos i wanted to use, (my husband in the pumpkin patch ) but do you think i could find them, still searching. When I could not find the photos, I went searching  for  my jam and pickles  ( It took me a while to even find those) but thought if worse comes to worse i can reprint them as i knew which device they have been saved to. Or i could resort to the grand kids photos of their food as every time we go out to eat to somewhere new they will take a photo on my phone, so that could have been my last resort. but alas i found them in the wrong envelope.

The Challenge is for "Off The Railways blog spot" this months challenge was a food mood board
