South Beach Victory Garden

This Sunday morning at the garden allotment, the tomatoes were in flower--there's fruit, too--the cosmos open, and kamatsu and red mustard big for braising.

























Compost does it's job, deepening green.



















Are cosmos flowers edible?  Must I ask the great god Google?

























Katmatsu struts its stuff.  (The stems are struts, all right.)

On the walk home I bought garlic and ginger for miso.  If I get the go-ahead about cosmos flowers, I'l float a few in the soup.  Miso is cooking light.

Are you cooking today?

  1. chicken soup and cornbread, mim--still stay-warm food! (but i'm saving egg cartons to start my tomato seeds...) i love this time of year.

  2. My eyes are hungry for this intensity of green. We are still in the grip of the White Witch here in England - not snow so much, but intense cold.

    I think today will be roast vegetables and chicken.

  4. Did you ever find an answer on the "edible Cosmos" question? I've found conflicting information, with some sites warning us of their toxicity, others touting their tastiness.
