In My San Diego Garden and Kitchen
It’s citrus season in Southern California. My navel orange tree is laden with fruit. Ditto the tangerine tree. There are limes too and kumquats are beginning to turn orange.
We have more oranges than we can eat so we share with neighbors. There’s orange marmalade to be made after the holidays. Last year I made about 65 jars so I can give them away with abandon (just as my mother and grandmother did).
Fresh orange juice is the breakfast routine at this time of year. The weather has turned decidedly cooler at night which causes the citrus to become sweeter. Last week during our stormy period it was 38 degrees in the garden.
Wish I could share some of this California sunshine in a glass with those of you in the throes of winter weather.
I picked tangerines yesterday afternoon. Unlike oranges, tangerines do not store well on the tree so the season is shorter.
I wandered the neighborhood, refilling my bowl as needed, sharing tangerines with neighbors. They are so sweet and juicy.
My little neighbor friend was happy to accept more tangerines.
I continue to harvest various greens in amounts for a salad. Only minutes from plant to table.

It’s strawberry season in my garden. Each one is savored as they ripen. I only have six plants this year since I planted them in my new raised beds instead of the usual spot with the marionberries.
Many of the strawberries are this large. They seem to like my new raised bed soil and the winter rains. And good news--they’re sweet and very tasty.
The blueberries are plentiful now as well so we have them everyday.
I pulled the last of the broccoli plants to make way for the tomatoes. The small side shoots work well in a saute with celery, green onions and fresh thyme from the garden. I top it off with grated Parmesan for a great lunch.
I also declared that kale season is over and made my last Tuscan Kale Salad last week.
The ‘Third Harmonic’ alstromerias burst into bloom this week. Waning daylight in the kitchen often puts my bouquets in their best light.
