If you like tuna and cilantro, I've done cream cheese whipped with tinned tuna and chopped cilantro served in endive. Sounds a bit strange but I saw it somewhere and gave it a try. It works.

Letting the rains do their magic and reducing grazing pressure has seen so many soil seeds catch hold: I feel the world is abundant and the barnyard feels like a thick carpet! Later this year, I will bring back chickens and geese:) I note the fruit trees have set a lot of fruit this year. I hope you are experiencing the same.



It has been a really great spring, everything is lush and green.

I would like some as well if you have enough. I would not need much.
Pre Salting the kale and making a slaw out if it can make it more tender, also I find its more tender and less bitter after it has had a frost. Verity also makes a difference I have found, I have one I use in salads more often and others usually for cooking.

Two cows are having a chat over a fence. The first says "I'm really afraid of this mad cow disease, the second replies "I wouldn't worry it doesn't effect us ducks"
