Week 45
15th December – 21 December 2008
The first cold nip has retreat a bit, probably affected by the heat up approaching of coming Christmasy……
Wola as usual send off all the Christmas greetings to friends and family, it is a kind of traditional and it seems the time to keep in touch with friends and family……
Next is the decoration the hall and all, I recognised this is a pre Spring clean agenda…. while putting the trimmings and lightnings I noted down the area that has been elect during the past summer and places to clean or redecoration required in the coming Spring….
Follow up is to store up for the forthcoming banquet …. I have been to the allotment, dug up some more Jerusalem Artichokes, they are really sweet and tasty…. kept some small nodule of the artichoke in the ground and they will regrow next year and that is so simple to grow ……
Everything looks fine at the plot and I have decided to pick some Mizuna Leaves and cress next week before the feast day, and use them as salad for my starter….
On the way out just can’t help to note that Bill’s Brussels Sprouts and they are such big and fat and the amazing wonder is he grow them at the same area year after year and without fail the outcome is always top mark ……
The forecast for the Christmas is cold and frosty and no sign of snow in this part of the country, the south west. I wish you all have a Happy Christmas and despite all the ups and downs of the 2008 and lets have a Wonderful Peaceful New Year.
