In My San Diego Garden and Kitchen

The thumbnail is a sampling of the garden bounty last week. A cousin moved from Boston to San Diego recently and this was a welcome garden gift. She’s excited to think about growing vegetables 52 weeks a year, (as in ediblegardens52).

A salad with similar harvests of four kinds of lettuce, Tuscan kale, celery and purple cauliflower came together for a dinner with family.

I harvested the last of the Premium Crop broccoli and only one DePurple cauliflower remains in the garden. The Romanesco will be ready this week.

The coincidence of magenta garden vegetables and flowers.

Some of the citrus harvests this week—Bearss limes, Satsuma tangerines and navel oranges.

Another garden salad with a gifted Fuyu persimmon and additions of roasted pistachios and perfectly ripe avocado.

A wintry white bouquet from the perennial garden for the church entry table.
