I just had to remind myself that the weather does get better…

Sunday, January 31st, 2010

I just had to look back through my photos, to remind myself that summer does exist.  What a difference there was between my allotment last July, and then on December 24th when I had to search for my brussel sprouts in the snow.  Still they do say that a frost makes the brussels sweeter, and nobody complained about mine on Christmas Day!

 (Oh, apart from my 4 year old….   but who does like them, I have discovered, when shreaded and stir-fried with ginger and garlic.)

End of July 2009
