My Rubine sprouts are confused another way. They just look like cabbage

Rubine sprouts have never done much for me. Always much less vigorous than
the green types. The best I have done is a scant handful of undersized
sprouts. An heirloom called "Fillbasket" looks promising, though this was
a poor year. Mostly my fault; I'll try again next year.
Right now, the wind is howling around the house, a little below freezing,
and a dusting of snow on the ground. Looks like a scene from a bad movie
of prospectors in the Yukon territories!
I guess I might as well dig the leeks; they won't likely grow much more...
