CSA week 3

Here's a picture of my produce this week.



I picked these up on Thursday. That night I cleaned and chopped all the turnip greens and Bok Choy. I put them in produce bags in the fridge. I sliced the radishes and baked them. Today I am working on the rest.

So, I am processing and cooking up the Radish greens, Mustard greens, Turnip greens. My good friend Charlene told me I could blanch the greens and then freeze them. This way I can process them all and add ham or a turkey leg when I am ready to eat them. How smart is that?

Cooking therapy..

Major migraine today... Pulled off dinner though..



It was some great curry off of allrecipes.com. I've linked the recipe. Therapy was in the fresh ginger. Seems it has some anti-nausea properties. Nice indeed.

CSA - Week 2

I don't have much time to post. But, I wanted to give an update on my CSA order for week 2. It is much the same as week 1. CSA is Community Supported Agriculture. My CSA is Home Sweet Farm and here is their website. They also offer chicken, milk, cheese, eggs, and more with their deliveries.

We got 2 bags of fresh greens this week. This included mustard green, arugula, a bunch of radishes in various colors, chinese lettuce, and 2 types of butter lettuce.

Last week I made radish chips in the oven, boiled the mustard greens, sautéed the arugula, and ate lots of salad. Looks like I'll be having a lot of salad this week too!

I will post pictures next week!

Busyness or Business


Have you ever noticed how close these words are.

I can be busy with business. Hmmm. It makes my head tilt with how much there is to stay busy with.

What is on your to-do list lately?

...I think what is on your list is on mine too.
