thankful


Thankful for what appeared at the back door this week, surplus from the recent 'lifting'. Have you any favorite ways to use leeks?  We are planning on a pot of potato soup but that will not use them all.  

The carrots are eaten like candy by the children so I doubt they will ever see the inside of a stock pot. : )

Happy Thanksgiving! For the leeks, our favorite is in soup, but we also like them in quiche and Colcannon:

Well ~ ya just wear themin your hat, if all else fails... :0). Last St David's Day we made a really good leek soup. And they're nice and mild added to stir fry. How wonderful that you are having a fall harvest!

We like them oven-roasted with butter, salt and pepper.

    There isn't much that I can do, but I can share my bread with you, and sometimes share a sorrow, too.. There isn't much that I can do, but I can sit an hour with you, and I can share a joke with you, and sometimes share reverses, too.. There isn't much that I can do, but I can share my flowers with you, and I can share my books with you, and sometimes share your burdens, too.. There isn't much that I can do, but I can share my songs with you, and I can share my mirth with you, and sometimes come and laugh with you.. There isn't much that I can do, but I can share my hopes with you, and I can share my fears with you, and sometimes shed some tears with you.. There isn't much that I can do, but I can share my friends with you, and I can share my life with you, and oftentimes share a prayer with you.
