Yesterday I went down and picked (with very cold hands!) at least 2 kilos of sprouts!! The harvest this year is terrific. Put two bags in the freezer and we'll eat a pound this week.
Also got - 4 leeks, some green kale, and a bag of mixed salads - a baby scarole, some lamb's lettuce and wild rocket and parsley. It was delish.
2012 - Snow in February, non-stop rain till July. Blight and rot are rife. Thieving voles cause strife. But first runner beans and lots of greens. Follow an English allotment in urban France: http://roos-and-camembert.blogspot.com

I'm going to crop the rest of the Kalibos and Summer Cabbage before they are too frost damaged... they will keep a month or so in the shed/fridge...  :)
Probably won't eat them today though!  :-X

Soup made from J artichokes and the scraggy bits of parsnips (hate to waste anything) liquidised, then added shallots and a leek and parsley plus bought cabbage and celery and cream. Delicious.

Bacon Roly Poly containing onions (sturon) from storage, sage from the garden with frozen runner beans (scarlet emperors) from the plot, and cabbage :P

Very unhealthy with all that suet, tomorrow is another day and this was all that was left sadly ::) but all the greens went  ;D
