my December "fix"

The last time I had to buy kale, spinach, and beet greens was in April.  My spring goodies took off like a rocket and we were eating those babies right up to the hard freeze.  When I had to buy it at the store again in November, I vowed to find a way to grow AT LEAST kale and spinach inside.

It's not working as well or as quickly as I like, but I do pinch off some "infant" leaves to eat every day.  

It used to be the bulk of my plate. 

Now it's the garnish on top.  

I don't care.  

It's fresh, I grew it, it's not sprayed and I know these little plants will soon find their way into my huge garden where they can EXPLODE and feed my family until Mother Nature says "Stop"
