It’s the last day of January, which means winter is almost over, there’s a break from school on the horizon, and I’m already a good 2 weeks behind on my organizational calendar. Today was unseasonably warm (apparently it got up around 50 degrees!), so Brian and I went for a walk. It felt like spring, [...]
We’re a couple months into our winter CSA share now and the produce is still great. We’re consuming more squash and potatoes than the average person, but I’m totally okay with that. It’s been fun coming up with new ways to enjoy them, though there’s still a lot of roasted squash and potato hash happening. [...]
Now that we’re into the winter portion of our CSA share, pick ups are every other week. It’s a bit of a mental adjustment for me and I feel like I should be planning 2 weeks of meals when I plan my menu, instead of one. So far I haven’t been successful in this department, [...]
It’s hard to believe that last weekend was the last week of the summer season for our CSA pickup. Just another tangible demonstration of the fact that summer is officially over and winter is quickly approaching. That, and last weekend’s snowstorm. Oh well, all is not lost; we’re doing a winter share again (just like [...]
When I posted my last CSA run-down I was sort of apologetic for not updating in over a month. Since then I’ve decided that I like reporting on several weeks at once. So much of the produce we pick up gets used in our lunches (carrot and pepper sticks, etc.) or as side dishes (broccoli, [...]
It has been a full month since I last posted about our CSA pick ups. There are a number of reasons for that, mostly the fact that I had too many other wonderful things to share. The week of the Healthy Living Summit, there was no photo of the food since Brian picked it up [...]
Contrary to appearances, Brian and I are still members of the CSA at Mighty Food Farm. It’s just been a crazy few weeks. The 11th pickup of the season was 4 days before our departure for the Northwest. Since Heather was kindly allowing us to stay at her apartment the night before our 6 am [...]
Last week we picked up food from the farm and I didn’t take a picture of it. I think that had something to do with my wanting to get out of the house as soon as possible to start my CDNY weekend and run an awesome 5k. But this week I did take a picture [...]
Head lettuce, kale, eggs, carrots, tomatoes (2 shares), zucchini (2 shares), scallions, dill I didn’t know there were going to be carrots available this week. They weren’t on the emailed list from the farm; I love farm-related surprises! Carrots are one of the few vegetables that we always have in the house, year round. [...]
We actually picked up our CSA share twice during the last week, Tuesday and Friday. Our farm is really awesome and lets you make up missed weeks whenever you want. I couldn’t wait a full week to get vegetables in the house after our trip (and it seems so silly to buy them at the [...]
