Hello, Friends! (CSA Menu Plan #76)

Published on June 29, 2017 By Emily. Updated on June 29, 2017

Next spring, I want to remember that June is completely insane.  All my fantasies about routine and productivity were completely thrown out the window by the reality that is the sixth month of the year.  Not only is it the end of school (which means graduation, awards events, retirement parties and end of the year celebrations), but the calendar has no less than 3 family birthday, my wedding anniversary and the overlap of the school routine with the summer routine.  I’m sure June has been this nuts for years, but I felt it keenly this time around.  But it’s all good, we’ve just about made it to the end.

And it’ll be a good end – unlike last week, we’ll actually be home to eat meals.  July is looking lovely and includes a nice vacation.  My daughter is just starting to become mobile which means I’ll never be bored.  And the CSA vegetables have been fantastic.

The Pick Up

CSA Pick Up 6.26.17

collards, Swiss chard, strawberries, kohlrabi, kale, Hakurei turnips, scallions, radishes, bok choy, lettuce, summer squash, cucumber

The Plan

Cajun-spiced swordfish with roasted potatoes and collard greens (from last week)

Church cookout

Cheese pizza with green salad

Lunches: green salad; tuna salad mixed with shredded kale and scallions (so good! try it!), whatever else we can dig up! It’s so nice to be out of school!

Despite the cool temperatures and wet weather, we Despite the cool temperatures and wet weather, we had another fantastic year at @freshgrassfestival. I can never get over how, in addition to all the incredible music, the event features a great venue (@massmoca), delicious food from mostly local vendors, a great local beer tent and bar stocked with @berkshiremtdist and a kid-friendly atmosphere including a @kidspacemm art tent.
Shout-out to some of my favorite acts of the day @ajleebluesummit, @cj_field with @gregcaproni and @theblacklegacyproject.

Looking forward to next year!

I made my first ever trip to @seconddropfarm in La I made my first ever trip to @seconddropfarm in Lanesborough this morning to pick blueberries with my daughter. We had a lovely time at the farm, and especially enjoyed the short walk to the lush blueberry bushes, and the beautiful flower and lavender fields. We didn't participate in pick-your-own flowers today, but it's definitely on my radar for the future.
We are looking forward to some muffin baking soon! 🫐
