Hi all!

It's been a while. I hope that everyone is doing well!

since the current topic is weather.... it's been an amazing winter here. 1.5 weeks of -40c, but other than that it's been hovering around 0c. About a normal amount of snow. This weekend is supposed to drop to around -15c, but only for a few days. I've only had to deal with frozen eggs once so far.

Nice photos, Penny! I know it's not a big deal to get snow here, but it means going out at the crack of dawn to make sure the water dishes aren't frozen. :wee

What do you mean by uncovering the brussel sprouts? Are you growing them? Are they in the garden? What did you cover them with? This just might explain why I have this late crop of brussels that are hollow and frozen. I gave up on them a long time ago, but now I'm sad that I just didn't know how to do it.
 
Okay Val bought started plants in Morton at the DIY store.. Then last year had a grand crop of them as I took the stalks the cut started to leaf again covered them for the winter black plastic then shavings.. Took it all off yesterday one tire is dead stalk other two showed green leaves coming in from where I cut just as last year will look for starts there again in a month or so

Oh, okay. Thought maybe I didn't give them long enough. Mine were very sad. Loads of sprouts, but empty. The season was too short at my house.
