why I froze my butt off this Winter while covering these plants. They actually made it! Standing in the snow covering them up I felt like a crazy lady but tonight I will eat the fruits of my labor :)
Enjoy the weekend ya'll!!!
They are so good! I can't wait! My favorite veg is asparagus. Fingers crossed my chickens didn't ruin my bed it's three years old now and I had high hopes for it this year :/
I saw a chef fixing them on TV and he cut the little stems out of the round part, kind of made a cone indent in it, he said that the stem part is what gives them an off taste.
Ah heck, Kelly, if you needed a few Brussel sprouts why didn't you yell. I'd of sent a few.
ReplyDeleteAwww! How sweet Stephen :)
DeleteWow! Applause, applause to you for succeeding in over-wintering those luscious looking Brussels sprouts!! That is quite a feat in my book.
ReplyDeleteThank you Mama Pea, I honestly can't believe they survived :)
DeleteThose look delicious. One of our most favorite vegetables, especially super fresh like yours!

DeleteHahaha .... You prob did look like a crazy woman, but you've got great results ... Good for you
ReplyDeleteI even stepped back and thought "what are you doing there is snow on the ground" LOL!!! Definitely worth it now :)
DeleteKelly, That's disgusting. I won't cook or eat them. My husband waits till I'm gone to cook them for himself. Yuck!
ReplyDeleteHa!!!!!
DeleteYou're still a crazy lady though.
ReplyDeleteFor sure ;)

ReplyDeleteI do knick the stems with a knife. I was feeling lazy and going to skip that part tonight. Well not now! Thanks SBF!
DeleteBeautiful! I wish I could grow Brussels Sprouts here!
ReplyDeleteHooray for you! Those look amazing!
