After I used the bulb in soup I put the stems in an old jar. The vascular system of the leek continued to pull water up and it swelled the different stems inside, and each morning when I come down, the protrusion is about half an inch higher. Fog the cat keeps nibbling on them. I am posting this for Greentwinsmummy - over at the Simple Life blog, because I was startled to see that she and I - thousands of miles apart, bought leeks the same week.
I was going to post this picture last night but I was distracted by Presidential Politics on Tv. Sorry, Greentwinsmummy!
