I really, really, really dislike winter. I’m terrified of winter driving, I’m perpetually cold and its dark all the time. Winter and I are not friends. But today began one of the few things that will make winter a little bit less sad. Today was the first pick up of our winter CSA membership! Last…

Chocolate Peanut Butter Banana Soft Serve
The healthy living blogging “world” is a funny place. Just yesterday I met Cynthia for lunch and we talked about (among other things) how fun it is to hang out with other bloggers because they get “it”. Other bloggers don’t look at you funny when you photograph your food, or question why you’re not eating…
“Whatever’s In The Pantry” Stuffed Peppers
I sometimes decide to make random things I’ve never made (or had) before and can’t stop thinking about it until I do so. This week, it was stuffed peppers. Tuesday’s trip to the CSA yielded 6 green bell peppers, among other things and last night I put my (rather spontaneous, recipe-less) plan into action. For…
Kohlrabi is the Coolest Looking Vegetable
Meet kohlrabi. We met 2 weeks ago at our CSA. Any vegetable that’s bright purple gets points in my book; I’m a sucker for anything purple. And it just looks cool, with all those “tentacles” sticking out. It looks more to me like some sort of alien creature than a vegetable (maybe I watch too…
Highlights: Making the Most of Vegetables
Brian and I are still doing the CSA thing, though clearly it hasn’t been blogworthy as of late. Still, there’s nothing more awesome than local, fresh, organic food (I swear it tastes better). Our town’s farmer’s market just started up this weekend (I have no idea why it begins so late) and so I bought…
On “Eating Ethically”
I love the blogosphere. Caitlin, over at her blog Healthy Tipping Point posted great answer to the question What Does “Ethical Eating” Mean? yesterday I’ll get to Caitlin’s thoughts, and my own in a minute. But you need to know, this post pretty much made my day. It’s basically the post I’ve been trying to…
Highlights: My Favorite Recipe Sites
Its possible that I have an unhealthy obsession with recipes. It’s an excellent example of the way in which the internet enables my bad habits. Granted, I’d have plenty of recipes to choose from if I only had my cookbooks and magazine subscriptions, but the web brings recipe collecting to a whole new level. Today…
Fun with Garlic Scapes
When Brian and I went to Caretaker Farm last week on distribution day, I was super-excited to see a big box of garlic scapes with no limit on how many we could take. Clearly it’s a side effect of reading so many food blogs: I read all the posts about seasonal foods and get really…
Summer = Fresh Food
So, mostly I’m ambivalent about summer. I know, I know…it’s summer and I’m a teacher, so I should be super excited to have the summer off. Except, and apparently only people who teach are aware of this, I don’t really have the summer off. Granted, I signed up for everything I’ll be doing and I’m…
Know Your Farmer, Know Your Food
Last night Brian and I headed to a local “Know Your Farmer, Know Your Food” event. I was really glad we checked it out and it got some good press in the local paper too. The event ran from 5-7 pm and we got there a bit after 5. I was pleasantly surprised to find…
