I know I have been singing the praises of saladini, but there is a lot to be said for a plain old iceberg – if it’s fresh from the plot, and not shrink-wrapped. I do like a bit of crunch in my salad. The only problem is that all 12 icebergs have matured at once, so we will have to eat a lot of them in the next three days.
On the weekend we leave for a week in France, but I am having trouble with the idea of giving away our precious crops, instead wondering vainly if they would maybe cope for a week on their own?
A recent post at My Tiny plot raised the issue of giving away surplus. Having never grown ANY of these crops before this year, I am reluctant to consider giving away ANYTHING. But perhaps that’ll come in time. And you can have a parsnip at Christmas, if you want.
But you might have to trample me to the ground to get them.
