Leekers

On Tuesday I finally cleaned out the tomato bed, those vines were nasty.

So sad how many tomatoes are laying in the garden bed.  

Then I dug all the leeks out of the step garden.  

The pansies and straw flowers are still blooming, so I guess I will let them keep on keepin' on.

I wasn't sure the leeks would still be good, but they look fine.

It was a good leek harvest.

I found this one award winner.

Too bad there is no county fair to enter this beauty into.

Now the leeks are soaking and I will have to clean them up good.

They are kind of a pain to clean up, but worth it, such a mild onion flavor.

I'm thinking I will saute a big pan of leeks as a good start to the green chili that I'm going to make this weekend.
