Christmas vegetables.

I went up to the allotment today to get the Christmas day vegetables.  Actually, they will probably last us into the new year. These are the vegetables I got either out of the ground or from the store shed.  I had to get them today because it will take me all tomorrow to prepare them.  That and wrapping presents. 

Vegetables for Christmas.

So we have some kale, Brussel sprouts, swede, red cabbage, leeks, celery, celeriac, pumpkin, squash, shallot, garlic, elephant garlic, oca, carrots, onions and parsnips.  Some of them are a bit moth eaten but that does not alter the taste.  I might get some beans and peas out of the freezer too. 

Happy Christmas and a very good, fruitful year.
