I’ll be looking out for those caulks too Jan W. My little cabbages look a bit sad due to all the rain but are starting to heart up so should be ok.
I liked the stems of the silver beet rather than the tops but mum would make a proper white sauce (roux style) for them and sometimes with added cheese or onion.
I tried the stems and leaves of the beetroot yesterday in a stir fry and they weren’t too bad at all.
Went over to my sisters yesterday - she is overseas at the moment so I helped BiL set up seed trays for lettuce, carrots, beets, and radishes and planted his little tomatoes into a planter thing he has and made it into a little hothouse to protect them. BiL’s mobility isn’t the best and he is quite limited in what he can do physically so he was the “brains” and I was the “brawn” . At least it got him outside for a while and something a bit different to do.
