Oooh it is still cold this morning, but the sun is shining. The veggie garden is looking good. The weeds are looking spectacular. I will have some time out there today - this week has been busy and I am still writing quotes, but there will be an hour or so pottering in the garden.

I'll focus on the beds today, not general weeding. So many things are looking so good after the rain. And the winter salad greens are big enough to begin some small pickings. Daikons need thinning so their leaves and tiny roots will go into salads.

I don't want to put the Big Heating on days where I'll mostly be using 1 room (ie when writing quotes), so I am roasting the cauliflower from that HUGE cauli that I am getting SO many meals from. The roasting warms the kitchen, and I bring my laptop in here.

I am roasting all remaining bits - leaves, stalk, florets. Most or all will go into a wintery soup with the pumpkin from the neighbour that I roasted last night. I cannot wait.

Back to working on the quote until the garden warms up slightly...
