Brief, yet packed with information. I like it! Plus, beautiful photos of the spinach. Well done.
ReplyDeleteI eat spinach all the time. I like the baby leaves in salad and can only tolerate it cooked like Popeye ate it when I smother it in vinegar. What can I say, I'm from the north:)
ReplyDeleteNothing beats fresh spinach! One of the best veggies for your health, too! Enjoy them :)

Alexandria, Tina, and Lynn,
ReplyDeleteThanks for stopping by, glad y'all like the spinach too. I will grow more baby spinach next year, it's so yummy. Hope y'all enjoy the father's day with family.
your spinach looks so wonderful! Our spinach is all gone now and I miss it in my salads. Must rely on the grocery store now. Sigh...
ReplyDeleteI can see that it is nice and green ;-) Good job VueJardin ;-D
ReplyDeleteI love spinach too, mine still have a little bit left, probably I can harvest it once/ twice and finish it.
