Anyone Garden?

R.I.P.
The last cold snap this past weekend took the plant, literally it was in so poor shape and leaves wilted. I had plenty of promising tomatos on it.
So, next project was pepper jelly!!!!!!

You are not alone. Last year I had collards all winter long. This year I got more creative, planting kale and chard. The streak of below-freezing days crushed everything except one kale plant. Very disappointing.

OH NO!!!!
We are finally getting our 1st snow coming today in Georgia.
Everyone is in frantic mode and schools are ending early.
WHAT!!! Over 1-4 inches of snow.
Only here in Georgia this happens. Urging everyone off the roads by 4pm. Geesh.

As for Kale..never ate any or grew any. I hear it mention a ton on shows, like Dr Oz and Rachael Ray etc.
Really I don't eat many greens at all. What it taste like??? And how to grow it? Anyhting like spinach, cabbage etc.

LOL 1-4 inches of snow is what we call a lite dusting.

To me kale is like spoiled lettuce dusted with dirt. The only thing worse is swiss chard, it is like salty dirty lettuce.
