Yeah, another big handful of strawberries. They taste good, but we must eat then within 24 hours or they get soft. I'm so amazed by these berries. I mean, it's
cold here.
I picked produce a couple times this past weekend. Here's the Friday harvest...I cooked up a huge pot of turnip greens on Sunday.
This is the Sunday harvest. I picked heavy on the hot peppers because I'm worried about losing them to frost. Normally I just pick the ripe red ones, but I went ahead and picked them green too. If they freeze and then thaw out, they rot very quickly. Somehow there are were still some cherry tomatoes out there, too. Also radishes, cilantro, green sweet peppers, more turnips, and green onions.
These green onions were planted in March. They are huge and healthy...check out their root structure. I love omelets with onions in them, and these guys are fantastic with my egg concoctions. I also chopped and cooked some with the turnip greens.
An amazing bounty in November! Beautiful!

Thanks, Tom! I'm usually a bit in awe of these plants, and even more now. They're doing stuff they really shouldn't be doing in November.
ReplyDeleteI'm also highly jealous of those lobsters of yours. The pictures were mouth-watering.
