Hi, welcome to FoodLovers!

In trying to see some positive after our tumultuous summer, I am enjoying the early lime season (all that rain I’m guessing), our coriander has flourished as has the mint.
In preparation for a winter of expensive vegetable prices my dried out summer cosmos flowers have been replaced with spinach, cauliflower, rocket and broccoli.
Currently our feijoa trees are dropping mountains of lovely fruit and although it is fabulous, I do need a plan to fight back against the guava moth next season, ugh.  I am so happy with our feijoa shortcake and if anyone has any wonderful feijoa recipes to share then we would love to see them.
