It's great that you're still getting things from the garden. The only things that survived winter for us were spinach and corn salad, although the Red Russian kale did come back after being killed off above-ground.Phuonghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07658691564062044986noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6665001536585846125.post-38137605367627479992018-03-20T23:22:29.340+00:002018-03-20T23:22:29.340+00:00We keep trying to spot a murmuration but never see...We keep trying to spot a murmuration but never seem to be in the right place at the right time.Sue Garretthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08164518448098182276noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6665001536585846125.post-682057618844903562018-03-20T16:51:05.508+00:002018-03-20T16:51:05.508+00:00Our leeks are also rust free this year, goodness k...Our leeks are also rust free this year, goodness knows how but glad as it gives lots of green to use.

It has a video and a link to yet another article about how the birds stick together as a group by each individual bird focusing attention on 7 of its neighbors. Fascinating.<br /><br />Beautiful leeks. I gave up growing them because rust inevitably infected them and pretty much ruined them. <br /><br />I'm with you on the one-pot dishes - easy to prepare, easy to eat, and easy to clean up.

We sometimes have starlings visit us in winter, and it's amazing how they navigate in such a big flock!Dave @ HappyAcreshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03441364543023807886noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6665001536585846125.post-77349805968828141572018-03-20T00:52:11.007+00:002018-03-20T00:52:11.007+00:00You are coming up with such wonderful meals - your...You are coming up with such wonderful meals - your stores & the bits that are still growing in the cold weather have definitely served you well over the winter.Margarethttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15949946977793864054noreply@blogger.com
