At the weekend we had lovely sunny weather which continues now.

Out in the vegetable garden Mr P and I began to harvest the onions and shallots.

He lifted and I laid them out in the sunshine to dry before I begin to make them into onion ropes, a skill I learnt last year.


I don't know whether Pie and Tortue really liked the smell of the onions or that they decided to 'guard '
the harvest I'm not sure but Tortue settled down to sleep beneath the table and Pie sat on the table amongst them.
What a wonderful harvest. How do you keep your onions? Do you make onion confit?
