A little bit of blue sky !
Yesterday the wind was blowing across us from the South West . Brrr... today , it isn't frosty , but it is a very cold morning . The wind has swung around and is now coming from the North .
I'm planning on making soup today and a cheese flan with ....hmm... maybe mushrooms and broccoli .
They have done really well this year . I usually grow Musselburgh , Jaune du Poitou and Bleu de Solaise or Carentan . I think these were a variety called Large American Flag . I can't find it in my little red note book . I try to keep a record of everything I sow , grow and harvest , I seem to have omitted this year's Leeks . In my opinion , they all taste pretty much the same . It being milder here , means I can grow the pretty French varieties ...blue and yellow .....which look gorgeous , but do all taste the same to me !
Musselburgh is the good old reliable one and better if you live further up-country and usually cheaper to buy .
Peelings have gone onto an empty veg bed which I am covering with leaves , grass clippings and other lovely things to feed the good earth to make it ready for next season .
Sorting out the windowsill propagator and all the little pans and their lids .
Sweet Peppers , Cucumbers , Leeks and Tomatoes . And I am looking forward to growing some unusual Passion Flowers in the greenhouse next year 2025. (that's if the greenhouse builders have returned to fix the roof in time ...sigh ...)
We'll be sowing seeds again very soon !
