As you can see below my last post on the parsnip potential proved right and we got a couple of lovely specimens for the xmas dinner table, lovelty and sweet after the frosts. The leeks were good and strong and I'll be trying a new creamed leeks recipe this weekend and some mashed swede I think.
The sprouting brocoli is doing well, a bit pushed over by the wind but none the worse off for it.I never got round to taking the cold frame down so no winter lettuce's for me.
The seed order for next year is already here and I'm eager to get planting, seed spuds this year I'll buy local.
Roll on the warmer weather!!!!!!!

Hi, I found your blog whilst browing for other allotment gardening/self-sufficiency blogs. I have added you to my links at www.bean-sprouts.blogspot.com
If you'd like to link back to me that would be great, but of course it is entirely up to you.
Regards,
I bet your Christmas dinner was all the better for having freshly dug veggies on the table. I just managed to take a Christmas Day blog picture before they went into the oven. Nothing beats it. Look forward to reading your blog in the Spring.
