    We only had sprouts, leeks, carrots and parsnips. Could have had cabbage as well but made a coleslaw with it and some onion. Didn't go and get them till half ten christmas morning so could not have had them any fresher.

        Nothing this year had a rubbish growing year. We could have had some shallots but I am saving them to plant for a bigger return next year (they were my only success)

          I did manage to use my home grown carrots, parsnips and Brussels sprouts. Feeling quite pleased with myself. I'm going to try and be better organised next year so, watch this space....

                I'm ashamed to say only sprouts and carrots!

                    Roast celeriac and parsnip with dinner yesterday. Red onions, beetroot, chilli jam today when my Mum, brother and SIL come for high tea.
                    I could not live without a garden, it is my place to unwind and recover, to marvel at the power of all growing things, even weeds!

                        Nothing. But did have home made (& grown) sweet chilli sauce with the salmon starter! Will do better next year honest!

                          Only managed parsnips roasted in the goose fat this year, but the plan is all the veg for next year.
