Рецепт Beef, Cabbage, Feta and Pimiento on Barley
I may have said this before, but…..
When one is cooking for two, buying a cabbage requires planning.
I get two or three or four dishes out of one head.
I usually use it once for a first course, once or twice as a vegetable side dish and the rest gets put into stir-fries, skillet dinners or quiches.
Fortunately, we both like cabbage.

Mon mari has been playing with lawn mowers and trimmers and roto-tillers and stuff so nothing new is happening in the house.
On the other hand, my potager is now ready for spring planting.
So I planted the onions and shallots.
I planted around 100 white onions, 150 red onions and 50 shallots.
The onions are tiny little things and easy to plant. But every morning I have to go around and tuck some of them back in the ground. I don’t know if birds disturb them or worms or what, but about 10% of them get popped out of there holes every night until the roots take hold.
In addition to a photo of dirt I thought I’d show you some flowers….. Above are hyacinths and plum blossoms.
Below are quince blossoms.
It’s a strange spring….. These flowers don’t normally bloom at the same time.
The quince blossoms started blooming more than a month ago, but very sparsely. The warm weather must have been what they needed as they are now covered in blossoms.
Maybe I’ll even get quince again.
