Our winter weather
has
been just perfect to grow greens.
My garden is
filled
with rows and rows
of
beautiful collards, lettuce, brussel sprouts, chard, kale and kohlrabi !!
Oh! Be still my southern girl heart!!!
It has been a very simple week at my house.
The very best kind I think
but
I did watch the movie
Midnight In Paris
and fell in
love with the music !!!

ReplyDeleteOh, I would love some collards, none at our store. And to get them fresh from the garden in Jan. what a treat. Richard from My Old Historic House.
ReplyDeleteDottie your garden looks lovely. Do you always have it in the winter or is it this very warm winter that allows it?
ReplyDeleteAs far as heating the pan, I find that the potatoes cool quickly and get pastey as you work with them, So if you start with putting the hot potatoe in a hot pot with just the bottom covered with the very hot water, it just makes it mash much better, I always leave a little of the water potatoes are cooked in when I make regular mash potatoes anyway, so I don't mind having a little water in with the potatoes. I hope this makes sense. I used to mash potatoes for the potato boats in a regular bowl but it didn't work as well
You have all of these beautiful greens????Oh my!
ReplyDeleteyou lucky lady!
I would love to have some Swiss chard...oh my! We cook it very briefly, put some butter and a sprinkle of vinegar on top...oh my! So good! Enjoy your week, sweet lady! ♥
