I managed to make good use of my
plentiful CSA haul last week. I still have some garlic and the chard left, but other than that, everything was consumed. This week's share, on the other hand, didn't impress me as much. I got extra kale and lettuce because others passed it up again. I may be getting sick of it, but I'll use it (or freeze it, if possible) just the same. In any case, the share was more of the same this week:
- 2 bunches of kale
- 1 small bunch of scallions
- 2 heads leaf lettuce (2 different types)
- 1 head of new garlic
- a handful of garlic scapes (free-for-all item)
I'm glad I got those zucchini and yellow squash, tomatoes, carrots, fennel, beets, apricots, nectarines, strawberries and cherries at the farmer's market on Sunday. I need the variety. I'm looking forward to the eggplant, raspberries, blackberries and other treats that will be coming from the CSA soon.
this is the book we have out our bookstore that looked like something you would enjoy:
