Labour Day Weekend

I am trying not to be overwhelmed by the speed in which produce from the garden needs to be processed. With the cauliflower we had 2 missteps but finally did get a head under the self blanching leaves.

The head or curd is tight and white unlike  the 2 that we overlooked, in which each constituent bump on the head was branching out. Bolting, that is.

Not very pleasant to look at though the discoloration does disappear if the cauliflower is processed for pickles. Yesterday, August 31, was pleasant enough in the afternoon for digging potatoes, and we did.

Today, it is wet and grey and calls for a Nova Scotian kitchen celebration.     

Happy Birthday CVL
