Hi I'm Janine. I am the author of the blog ChezJ9. I am a freelance Food writer and a recipe development Chef. I love to travel and have a passion for Art and gardening especially in my kitchen one. I love Gin and wine as a treat and love ALL foods especially seasonal food. One thing I don't like, is food waste. I try to be as Frugal as I can so that treats become more of a treat.

This lovely little sunflower has popped up from nowhere. It's growing in our magnolia which is in a pot at the moment. I was just about to take a picture and this busy bee 🐝 just popped on in great timing 😊I've always wanted sunflowers in my garden too but never thought I had the space. I have an idea definitely for next year now 😉 . . . . #sunflower #sunflowers #bee #bees #saveourbees #seasonalflowers #seasonal #august #summer #summerflower #summerflowers #flowers #flowerstagram #floweroftheday #yellowflowers #englishgarden #countrygarden #garden #gardener #lovemygarden #nofilter #iphone6photography Blackberry picking in the sun. Lots are all over the hedgerows and have been for a few weeks now. It still seems a little early these days for me but I will still go and get them. There's also lots of many other things in the hedgerows too that I'll be getting.Keep your eyes peeled for what I'm going to come up with 😉 . . . . #blackberry #blackberries #picking #foraging #freefood #wildfood #forage #harvest #bramble #brambles #berries #hedgerow #hedgerows #fruit #summerfood #summer #august #countryside #nature #wildforage #wildharvest #frugal #frugalliving #frugalfood Always keep the soil when harvesting your potatoes ( as long as it isn't infected with blight or anything else ). I am going to sow some more carrots with this soil in pots again. Hopefully they will still grow 🤞🏻 . . . . #harvest #marfona #potatoes #potato #soil #sussextrug #trug #august #summerveg #summerfood #seasonal #seasonalfood #gyo #growyourown #growyourownfood #ediblegarden #vegetablegarden #vegetablepatch #kitchengarden #englishgarden #veg #vegetables #garden #gardening #gardener #foodwriter #foodblogger Harvested a few more bits yesterday, including some lovely herbs too. We have two carrot varieties, the little round ones are called Paris market ( which taste Devine! ) and then we have chantenay carrots which are so lovely too. I made a cottage pie last night so the little round ones went in along with using the potatoes for the mash! 😜The carrots and courgettes are @mrfothergills . . . . #harvest #gyo #growyourown #growyourownfood #potato #potatoes #chantenay #carrots #parismarketcarrots #courgette #courgettes #homegrown #mrfothergills #seasonal #seasonalfood #august #summerveg #summerfood #summer #vegetables #vegetablegarden #vegetablepatch #kitchengarden #potager #englishgarden #gardening #gardener #foodwriter #foodblogger Harvested some cracking potatoes earlier today! I'm so pleased with this batch. They are called marfona. We grew some in bags and some in containers. This batch was from a bag. Of course...Some will be used in tonight's dinner. 😊 It just goes to show you, even with smaller spaces, you can achieve maximum results. 😉 . . . . #gyo #growyourown #growyourownfood #marfona #potato #potatoes #seasonal #seasonalfood #harvest #august #summerveg #summerfood #englishgarden #kitchengarden #veg #veggies #vegetables #vegetablegarden #vegetablepatch #potager #homegrown #ediblegarden #gardening #gardener #garden Just spotted this little fella in the garden. I've tried to find out what it is but struggling a little. Anybody know what butterfly it will become? Will it help in my garden or is it a critter?! 🤔 . . . . #catterpillar #furrycaterpillar #butterfly #englishgarden #wildlife #britishwildlife #wildlifeuk #england #nature #britishnature #beautiful #creatures #kitchengarden #summergarden #summer #countrygarden #bugslife #courgette #courgettes #instagarden #instagardenlovers #instagardening #gardener #gardening
