CSA Box

So, I was SO excited to open my first CSA Box from Abundant Harvest Organics that I forgot to Blog about it, much less take pictures!  My bad!
So, to make it up to you ('cuz I know you've been sittin' there all week wondering what was in my box & how I served it!) lol ....here's a detailed post about my second box:



There is this adorable little crate that collapses when you're done with it...I pop it in the trunk that way I don't forget to take it the following week!  I go thru the box & separate everything, putting them in green veggie bags or prepping them for immediate usage.

there's what was on the right side (under all that Spinach!)

And here's what was on the left side...

I still haven't used ANYTHING that came in this box except the Red leaf lettuce (used about 1/3 in a salad the other night) and the Yukon Gold potatoes (I made a Spanish Tortilla last night & enjoyed it cold with Sea Salt as a scrummy breakfast this morning!)

I LOVE Arugula, but haven't been doing 'dinner planning every night like I hoped, so I can only hope the green Veggie bags help keep everything fresh enough 'til the weekend!

hey Erin, I answered your Kasha question. I don't know too much about Julia, but Jaques is my all time fave chef in the worls. You wouldn't of happened to meet him to?:) I love how the produce section appears to have vomited in your kitchen. How will you ever clean that mess up?:

I decided I don't like arugula so much. Too bitter. Bleck. Or maybe I was eating something else? Anyway, next time we get it, maybe we can trade something...

Me? Well....I have a day job selling travel to beautiful far away lands, and I love to travel - my job sort of supports & feeds the 'travel monster' inside me. But my other inner monster is: food in all it's facets. I have a 13 yr old DS from a previous life, and married the lovely JoeBacon a three years ago! I finally became a home-owner at that point, we did a huge addition/re-model right away to make the house a bit bigger & I got a wonderful new kitchen out of the deal! I've gone thru Culinary School twice (mostly for fun) 'cuz I love to cook! And thru reading/doing the Maker's Diet 2 years ago, became aware of Sally Fallon, Weston Price, etc...and now after about 9 months of exploring their world, I'm trying to really make it all part of mine. I've had some things turn out great & others have been miserable failures, but I'm learning a LOT (mostly from my fellow NT Bloggers)!! Now I'm enjoying my yard, garden, sprouting, baking bread, brewing Kombucha, using raw milk, making Kefir & Yogurt & just trying to find small ways to make yummy food better for us.
