Enjoying the Bounty (CSA Menu Plan #58)

Published on July 31, 2016 By Emily. Updated on July 31, 2016

It seems like with every week the CSA pick ups get better and better.  More color, more variety, more of my favorite things.  I also made it to the farmer’s market this weekend and picked up some awesome cantaloupe and corn on the cob.  Tomorrow is the first of August and, at least for the bulk of the month, it looks like it will be a much less busy month than July.  It also seems like it’s going to be less hot this week!  I’m looking forward to a few weeks of relaxing, board games, home projects, exploring local sites and enjoying the time before school starts and my baby is born.

The Pick Up

CSA Pick Up 7.29.16

The Plan

homemade cheese pizza with fresh tomatoes and basil (from my potted plant)
with radishes sautéed in basil compound butter

hamburgers wrapped in collard green leaves (as seen in Glamour Magazine, of all places!)
with caprese salad

eggplant parmesan and pasta (2 nights)
with green beans

loaded salads with lettuce, radishes (from last week), chickpeas, hard boiled eggs, blue cheese

Boiled Zucchini Salad with Tuna (Lidia Bastianich)
with corn on the cob, from the farmers market

fish – to be determined
with roasted potatoes + kohlrabi and cabbage slaw (recipe coming soon!)

Tomato Pesto Frittata (Martha Stewart
with corn on the cob

Last week Brian and I finally got around to hiring Last week Brian and I finally got around to hiring a sitter for a rare night out. We went to dinner at @publicna and took advantage of the opportunity with drinks, appetizers and dessert.

It was no surprise that Public was close to full on a Wednesday night - everything was so good.

For the fourth year, I've recapped the best new (to me) recipes I made this year in the hope that they'll give you some new dishes to try. This year's list is short, but delicious. It includes @budgetbytes My Favorite Recipes of 2022
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.

@freshgrassfestival continues to be one of my favo @freshgrassfestival continues to be one of my favorite events each year, and it doesn't hurt that it's just minutes away from home. Enjoying the festival with my kids is definitely a different experience than without, but it's still a good time. The weather was especially cooperative today which was great for all the laps I did around the @massmoca campus pushing a stroller. I'm already looking forward to next year.
