    My bil has a birthday today. This is his gift.
    There are spuds, courgettes, beetroot, onions, toms, beans, a cue and two of the loveliest leeks that we have ever grown....
    The flowers were for...well, flowers are a given to the birthday boy or girl on such a day.

    Very nice gift. Bout the only thing that would top that is if you cooked some of it for him, making it onto some exotic tasting dish....putting the flowers on the table for the center piece.

    What a thoughtful gift to present to your BIL. I'm sure it's one of the best presents as he can go on to enjoy all those delicious flavours.
