What do you enjoy about Monday?

I just seem to be spending all my time pottering in the garden and harvesting what I can. Another Monday dawns and I am picking blackberries ready to make Jam, although I love them with my cereal first thing in the morning and of course with my home-made ice-cream in the afternoon. I am also picking my runner green beans and freezing them. Beetroot will require pickling soon and of course making my beetroot chutney http://annh-annsp.blogspot.com/2009/08/beetroot-chutney.html Courgettes are coming thick and fast and I have been making courgette chocolate cake. http://www.allotment.org.uk/recipe/?s=Courgette+and+Chocolate+Cake"
I harvested my first lot of red skin potaotes and they taste great with a knob of butter. The peas are already in the freezer. I just love pottering.

I like the fresh slate that Monday represents. At work, Monday is staff meeting day, and I look forward to that. Monday evenings are usually free, all year long, and I like to come home with the knowledge that I don't have to go anywhere but my own kitchen.
