The record-breaking heat last week wasn’t completely helpful.  Both the spinach and the frilly endive are bolting now.  I picked a couple of endive plants when I first noticed the change in growth habit night before last and cooked them for dinner.  Nothing fancy, just chopped and boiled till wilted, then tossed with butter and freshly grated nutmeg.    They were still quite good, though maybe a little more bitter.  Today they look even worse with their tall, elongated centers.  Not sure they’re edible anymore.  Will need to plant them much earlier next year, while the weather is still cool.
