Leek Hunting

 Well, it quit raining, dried out a bit so we went huntin for Leeks !   "Bingo", we found a couple nice Patches of them and started to Dig !

We found a nice patch to start off with !
.
.
Didn't take long, all this rain and cool temps made the Leeks nice and firm and rather large !
.
.
Now its cut ends off, strip and pile up for washing !

My Honey cleaning out the Holly Hocks and Glads while I clean leeks !

Dinner was Leek Greens an Leeks, Garlic Shrimp and Buttered Grits and man oh man was it ever flavorful !
