CSA Pick Up, etc

Published on November 20, 2010 By Emily. Updated on November 20, 2010

The results of yesterday’s CSA pick up:

Swiss chard, Brussels sprouts, carnival squash, onions, red potatoes, white potatoes, blue potatoes, baby lettuce mix (in bag), turnips, parsnips

How did we use our last collection of food?

White Bean-Chard Soup (Food Network Magazine)–we’d never made chard before and it turned out really well

Polenta stuffed with kale and mushrooms

Roasted potatoes; roasted squash

Carrot sticks for our lunches

…and probably a few other things I can’t recall.  We have some onions and squash left.

This morning I headed to Berkshire Grown’s Holiday Farmer’s Market at Williams College.   The food looked amazing (too bad we didn’t actually need any!) and there were a lot of people.  I continue to be so impressed with how many local food producers there are.  Several dairy farmers were in attendance, as well as several beef and pork providers.  Somehow I managed to get out with my wallet intact.  If you missed out, there’s going to be another one on December 18th.

On an unrelated note, I optimized the Relishments site for mobile devices!  Please check out the site on your device and let me know how it looks (I may still tweak the settings a bit).  It looked good on my iPod touch, but I’d like to get more feedback.  Your input is much appreciated!  (Bloggers: I used the WPTouch plugin for WordPress and it was super easy)

Enjoy the rest of your weekend!

Spring has finally come to the Berkshires! It has Spring has finally come to the Berkshires!
It has been such a joy to finally spend time outside regularly and see everything in bloom.

I bought myself a bike and, after the initial adjustment of learning how to ride again after a nearly 25 year hiatus, it's become one of my favorite ways to experience the outdoors. (None of these photos was taken while riding. I barely stay upright with both hands on the bike.)

Published on December 30, 2022 By Emily. Updated on December 30, 2022

It’s hard to believe that 2022 is basically behind us. Though overall this year found me getting back to the person I want to be (post-babies and “post”-pandemic), I did not try nearly as many new recipes this year as I used to. In fact, I was pleasantly surprised to see that I’d made note of any new-to-me recipes I wanted to share in this post. This year’s list is short, but delicious. It includes recipes from @budgetbytes, @smittenkitchen and @howsweeteats.

@coastalmainebotanicalgardens continues to be one @coastalmainebotanicalgardens continues to be one of the highlights of all my return trips to Boothbay and their annual Gardens Aglow event continues to impress. It was great to be back to walking the gardens instead of the pandemic drive through and there seemed to be more lights than ever.  I'm already looking forward to next year.

Fall in the Berkshires is always incredible, but t Fall in the Berkshires is always incredible, but this year we've had weather that has also been outstanding. The past 2 weekends have included time at Jaeschke Orchards, the Greylock Glen, and the Ashuwillticook Rail Trail as well as stopping to photograph any random foliage I see. 
Check out the last slide for video of some feathered friends we saw on a walk.
