Tuesday it was a nice day so I turned back the plastic on the winter garden to harvest enough chard for supper and water it all.  I think the beet greens are all dead but the chard is holding on and the carrots actually look healthy.  The broccolini is totally gone and now the kale is "green lace".  I have no idea what pest is doing this but so far its leaving the other stuff alone. 

I made potato/chard gratin and corned beef for supper.  The chard worked well with the potatoes but I have decided I prefer scalloped to the gratin.

I finished the hems on the seventeen purple napkins I have in hand which makes a total of 27 in this batch.  There's still a good size piece of yardage so more can be made but not in time for largess at WWM as I need to be working on some other things now.
