A peak into this weeks share.

A sample of this week's share in the form of deliciousness (We also made hummus and baba ganoush):

Open-faced fried eggs and toast with Swiss chard, tomato, and Parmesan cheese.


The makings of marinated beets from Alice Waters "The Art of Simple Food."

Purple string beans turn green when cooked: Sauteed purple string beans and peanuts with soy sauce.

Lessons learned:
1) I really don't like beets. I tried. Hard.
2) I sort of miss fresh salads already. This was our first week without salad greens.
3) Freezing veggies is exciting. This was also the first week we first starting freezing a few veggies. Putting the little baggies of sauteed green onions, serrano peppers, and Swiss chard gave me something to look forward to when summer harvest is long gone.
4) Despite being adamant (well aware of the fact that this is not "cool") about prefering canned green beans over fresh, I LOVED the sauteed string bean snack I cooked up. And I thought I didn't know how to season.
