This is going to be short and sweet, as I cannot get a WiFi signal from anywhere in the house except the bedroom, so I have the laptop on the bed and I'm on my knees trying to type! I'm getting a stiff neck already.
The harvest this past week was identical to the one last week, so I didn't bother to photograph it. Just baby lettuce, green onions and nice big radishes. All delicious.
I did use some of my home preserved food from the 2010 garden, mainly the last jar of diced tomatoes (I have more back home in WA) in a huge pot of taco soup, some frozen bell peppers and a fresh butternut squash. I'm down to the last three butternuts, and they are absolutely delicious!
Be sure to check out Daphne's Dandelions to see what others may have harvested this week.
I can just imagine you kneeling beside your bed typing on the computer!!
ReplyDeleteWhat is going on with your wi-fi now??
Oh how I wish I had more butternuts. I think either I'm eating butternuts next year or I'm going to learn how to cook groundhog.
ReplyDeleteMy harvest pics are looking rather repetitve from week to week right now too. It's all good though. :D
ReplyDeleteAck! I came to play your game but my computer is so darn slow when it comes to searching that I just can't bear to do it.:( Anyway, I look forward to seeing how everyone else does.
ReplyDeleteThat said, I have never had to get on my knees to make our internet connection work before so you have it much worse than we do. Send some warmth our way will you.:) Your green onions sound good to me right now, I have a few that I am trying to get going in the house but the cats keep chewing on them. Hope you had a good Christmas.
You're still harvesting? Blimey, I have some potential salvage when the ice clears - artichokes, kale and cabbage - but I fear all else is lost!
ReplyDeleteSlim pickins' this time of year for me too. But, each passing day is getting us closer to digging in that soil!
ReplyDeleteHi Gran. Sorry to hear that you're still having the internet connection blues.
ReplyDeleteCongrats on your 100k views! That is quite an accomplishment!
Might be the same as last week but it sounds tasty. By the way, I love the picture of your yard up top. That's a good growing space.
ReplyDeleteRobin, now I'm not kneeling, I'm standing. I think that's even worse! I lost all signal after I emailed you last night, and you can see how I'm accessing it today, just read my new post.

Daphne, I would have to say that both Mr. Granny and I enjoy the butternuts more than anything else from the garden. Especially since we'll still be eating them when it's time to plant again!

Yes it is, Kitsap!

Mr. H., even you can have good green onions. Just do as I do, and buy the best looking ones in the produce department of the grocery store, and pot them up! I find just two or three bunches keeps us in salad onions for the entire winter.

TIG, I'm just beginning to harvest here in sunny Arizona. We're not here long enough to plant anything but the fastest growing lettuce, spinach and radishes, but it all tastes pretty darned good.

Veggie PAK, I have visions of cow manure dancing in my head, LOL!

Thanks, Thomas.

Thanks, Ottawa Gardener. It definitely beats my 17 square feet of garden down here! I sure do miss my WA garden, although I'm sure it's not looking very pretty right now.
