My head is a scary and lonely place.
BUT ANYWAY.
More harvesting. More filthy vegetables. More likelihood that I will, one day, actually have to enter the produce section of the grocery store for more than the lemons required for cocktails.
But I can't contemplate that sad day yet. Instead, let's contemplate my harvest from yesterday. WHEEE!
The last of the radishes, the last of the beets, not even close to the last of the leeks, a random volunteer squash that was delicious, and a couple of potatoes from the cellar.We had the leeks (stewed), the squash (baked and mashed with butter), and the potatoes (baked) for dinner last night, with some of the most recent lamb chops from this year's lambs (broiled--and scrumptious). The beets and radishes will have to wait until tomorrow. My patience for dirty vegetables was exhausted last night by the time I finished dealing with the leeks and potatoes.
I think you could probably read something very obscene into that last sentence, but my mind is too pure for such things.
Have a nice day.
Dirty girl. I am calling Vegetable Protection Services.
ReplyDeleteBoohoo the last of the fresh veggies from the garden. They look yummy.
ReplyDeleteVPS har har .
Word verification 'under'..now where do I go with that?
Those aren't the last fresh vegetables. There are still leeks, chard, collard greens, and parsnips out there. Plus purple cabbage and potatoes in the cellar.
ReplyDeleteI had a weird dream last night that I was eating buttery mashed squash. Seriously. It would be kind of eerie considering that's what you wrote about today, but...it's squash. I think I can move on now.
ReplyDeleteAlright...more fresh veggies from the garden...collard greens ."yum, yum" . Really, what is your recipe for those? And chard? I am interested. We have a cellar full of potatoes.They keep well. How well do cabbages keep in there?
ReplyDeleteI have a million jingles in my head, too. Me and you need to go into advertising. :)
ReplyDeleteVeggies, yum.
Ooh - acorn squash! Something else I've never grown.
ReplyDeleteI'm getting antsy for potatoes. This is the year.
Go on with your dirty self.
Hmmm. Leeks. I could grow leeks in my garden. But they really are so dirty!
ReplyDeleteDid it ever cross you mind to, I don't know, maybe have a, um, SMALLER, garden? LOL! You are working ALL THE TIME, harvesting, washing, canning all that stuff. Man, you work way to hard for me! :)
