The weather has been really good this weekend, yesterday I managed to get out into the garden and sort another bed and do some clearing. On Thursday I was having a nose at the plants that are already in and things are going well:

The first small heads of Romanescu

Pea and garlic coming up in paper pots, the paper pot maker was part of my Christmas present and it’s great, you cut strips of newspaper wrap them around the pot maker and push them into shape. I’m going to get a bulb planter and start all the plants of in them and have a low dig garden.

Not the best picture because of the sunlight but this is of the first small pieces of white sprouting.

I took some leeks up from the garden as well and made them into leek and potato soup which wasn’t my best ever as I’ve had a cold and couldn’t smell the potatos burning. It still tasted ok though.

Primrose has a very nice little udder now but it looks like she returned to the bull so won’t be calving until the 25th of Feb.
