Why oh why didn't I go to the allotment to collect my Christmas veggies on Thursday? Instead, I left it till yesterday when it was raining cats and dogs and I got thoroughly wet through. Unfortunately, my sprouts just aren't good enough, so it's shop bought for another year, and my leeks are just far too small, so all we've ended up with for our Christmas dinner plate from the allotment is parsnips. They'll be delicious anyway.
As you can see, Archie is already in the Christmas spirit and is waiting for Santa Paws to arrive.

Oh what a sweet face ~ I bet he gets away with a lot. Wishing you peace and joy at Christmas Jo and as for those sprouts and leeks there's always next year! xxx
We were patting ourselves on the back for getting our beg on Thursday. Archie looks beautiful, I hope that he has lots of presents to open. Have a lovely Christmas and thank you for your regular comments on my blog.
Lovely photo of Archie, he's certainly getting into the festive spirit. A very Merry Christmas to you and your family Jo, and may 2012 bring you healthy sprouts and bigger leeks.

Lots of love,

Happy Christmas Jo.
Archie is so cute! Hope your parsnips are delicious! Happy Christmas and have a lovely day.
I know what you mean Jo. I went to the allotment and got soaked. In fact it has been so wet and the paths on the plot are so slippy I nearly ended up doing a comedy fall. Good job nobody was around to see it. Hope you have a lovely Christmas.Wellywoman.
Shame about the leeks and sprouts - snap.
Have a lovely Christmas and a big thank you for the time you take to comment on my blogs.
Haha, love the christmas photo! My sprouts will also not grace the table until spring but I managed onions, carrots and spuds from the Veg Patch in my Xmas dinner. It came down here too on Thursday - just managed to move a cherry tree, plant garlic and clear a couple of beds before I realised that my coat was soaked and my back drenched! Now enjoying a post Christmas cold! Ah well! Happy Christmas Jo, and thanks for a year of good blog reading. Caro xx
Darling dog!
Blessing of the Christmas season to you!

Hope you had a great celebration Jo. I had only parsnips from the suburban veg plot for the Christmas table this year. I harvested them on Christmas Day itself - but only had as far to go as the bottom of the garden...
Dear Jo, Oh, how I wish I had planted parsnips this year -- carrots were just not the same. Your Christmas photo is adorable! Happy New Year! P. x
Bet those parsnips were good? Merry Christmas and best wishes for 2012.
A belated Merry Christmas to you and your family...I bet those parsnips were delicious...better luck next year for the sprouts!!
I've been off line for most of Christmas while staying at the in laws. How could I have missed this?! Adorable! Hope your Christmas was fun X
Thank you for all your wonderful comments, they really make my day.
Archie is precious :)
Thanks, Tanya. He's a little cutie.
