Hi Y'All

PSB, WSB (wonderful), baked parsnips and griddled leeks.  The White Sprouting Broccoli was an accidental purchase, but what a revelation, like min-caulis, with lots of tender leaf.  And it's supposed to be perennial (only just found that out).

Happy eating.

3 spears of asparagus - I kept telling them it was way to early and to stop growing but they ignored me - it seemed rude not to eat them ;D ;D

Overwintered lettuce and spring onions, this year's radishes, rocket, salad leaves, and ASPARAGUS!  Spring has come at last......

PSB and leeks. And, if I'm honest, the thinnings of brassicas and lettuce. Waste not ...
