Cookery and plotting...

[mrph]

Served the Tuesday night mob a simple broth this week - Jerusalem artichokes and sliced onions, softened in a little olive oil then simmered in chicken stock (along with lots of pepper, a bay leaf and some thyme).

Seemed to work ok, even if I did forget to add some chopped parsley at the end...

(Note to self: plant lots of parsley this year. You know it makes sense. And saves money...)

unless the v/moles eat it all. Not sure if they are much of a problem where you are but my mum was complaining bitterly this year that everything was being eaten either from above by snails or from below by voles (or moles tunnelling everywhere meaning the plants had no support and/or sustenance.
She's actually seriously considering giving up her 5x5m veg patch because of that. :o(
ETA: They even had to buy bloody carrots (which even in our rough climate will always grow) this year because they only got out two or so.
