Thinnin' mah mustardz

Our little patch of mustard greens has grown very well. So well in fact that it's time to do some thinning. I pulled a bunch of clumps out yesterday for our potluck and after sauteeing, they calmed down a lot. The darn things are very spicy when fresh from the garden. Oddly enough, they tolerated the incredible day of heat we had a couple weeks ago just fine while it appears that the peas perished. Snuggled in next to the greens are green onions, parsley and some leeks. Spinach coming up too. I think I'll re-sow peas this weekend.
