Harvest Monday

This weeks Harvest Monday, hosted by Daphne consists of lots of green (yes, again...I'm practicing my patience this spring).

Spinach = 1 lb 14 oz


Kale = 1 lb 13 oz


Snap Peas = 1 oz


The snap peas are the most exciting news of the week because I just love them so much!!!  There were also several peas that we ate off the vine before I actually "harvested" them, so those fractions of ounces are not included in the above number. I have a sneaking suspicion that these will disappear very quickly!

What did I do with all the spinach & kale?  I preserved it all!!!

Some of the spinach is already starting to go to seed and since my second planting of it seems a bit delayed this year (and my third planting just went in the ground yesterday), I just might have to go without for a bit.


Happy harvesting!!!

    Beatuiful spinach. At least with it preserved you'll still be able to use some while you wait for the next batch to fill in.

    I didn't have enough spinach to keep. It all got used. Maybe in the fall. You're doing pretty good!

    I harvested my first snowpeas yesterday. whoot! Well except the ones that didn't make it out of the garden. It is hard to keep my hands off the peas.

    Thanks Barbie & Shawn Ann!

    Daphne, I know right?! I eat at least one for every two or three I harvest! It's real problem ;-)
