I've managed several hours on the bike, a few being my first race in 5yrs. A 3hr #harescramble organised by #TracknTrail near #Chard. Been there many times before and the course was the easiest it's been in years. Still very lumpy and slick in places but effort by the organisers in making it flowing paid off.

Due to health issues, I had done almost zero exercise in almost 7months. Took things easy and worked my way into it. 3rd in class and 38 overall is far better than a dnf I was expecting.

Some cuties I planted yesterday 🤩

Rainy afternoon, backyard #homegrown #food #harvest.
Mixed #AsianGreens - #chard / #bokchoy / #MustardGreens.
These are Asian greens that we grow & harvest as needed, year round. They are put under light covers in the colder Winter months. I keep their bases well mulched during Winter & they do just fine.

A Little Veggie Hill 😀

Made with carrot, garlic, garden herbs (three-cornered leek, chard), tomato, oregano and Emmental cheese on a shortcrust pastry base.
Served drizzled with chili oil

I made another great stew of the sort I enjoy. It struck me that I had not had chard for a long time, so for greens I used one bunch of rainbow chard. However, the black kale was so fresh and appealing that I also used a bunch of that. The new tempeh also worked well.

A little haul from the #garden (on Thursday but I forgot to post it then). #tomatoes #chard and #rhubarb. Rhubarb crumble has been made and already consumed. Ignore the 3 #carrots, the carrots aren’t ready yet.
Who isn’t entranced by a large vegetable plant with stems that are so pretty? Swiss chard, Peppermint. Seen at Elgin Nursery in West Phoenix Arizona. #Chard #Plant #Phoenix
