CSA -- Share 1

  • Jun. 14th, 2009 at 10:05 PM

Salad = lettuce and radishes and scallions

Spanikopita = chard and spinach and scallions

Strawberry Rhubarb Pie = strawberry and rhubarb

Eating plain = strawberries


Still have a small bok choy, some scallions and some radishes left. I'll be eating spanikopita for dinner or lunch for the next few days and I have a bit of salad left that I'm going to try to remember to bring for lunch tomorrow. So, week one was a success I think.


Update: Forgot the salad for lunch, but remembered to bring in the half of the strawberry rhubarb pie.....also learned that not all strawberry rhubarb pie has strawberries in it...apparently because it's red some people call the rhubarb "strawberry"....never had heard that before.

First CSA Haul

  • Jun. 11th, 2009 at 8:58 PM


leaf lettuce, spinach, chard, bok choy, scallions, strawberries, rhubarb and radishes.

Today I picked up my first CSA haul. I had no idea what to expect and was a bit overwhelmed by entire process.

What I thought would happen: I'd pull up give them my name and pick up a bag or box or tote of veggies.

What happened: Showed up , gave them my name, found out I should bring my own bags/boxes because shares are not pre-packaged. You have a total number of points and things are either by the bunch/box/lb and a sign near each tells you what it is and how many pts/unit it is. Depending on your share type you get a certain number of points a week. You can take as much or as little of things as you want as long as you stay within your points.

I feel like I will be better prepared next week. I love the free form of it all. I love that I can load up on things I like.

I think I'm really going to like this.

oh the strawberries? OMG, so good!!!!!

Way Too Excited

  • Jun. 5th, 2009 at 4:12 PM

I know I'm probably way too excited about this...as it's turned up on my Twitter account more than once in the last 2 days, but I really am over the moon that I was able to join a local CSA. The one I joined has a great variety. One of the things I've been concerened about. Plus, this one has a ton of fruit that comes with it. Strawberries, blackberries, 3 types of raspberries, currants, and melon are just some of the fruits!!!

Plus, I can't wait to try things like beets and bok choy. I'm sure I've had bok choy before as it's used a lot in asian cooking, but I've never had fresh beets. I don't like the canned/jarred beets, but everyone tells me that fresh beets are nothing like that.

Plus, for the next 4 months I'll have a constant supply of fresh basil (if the weather cooperates that is). Other foods I'm looking forward to, fresh broccoli, cauliflower, cukes, and a variety of squash. I can't wait. It'll be like when I was younger and my Mom did a huge garden adn we ALWAYS had fresh cukes and zucchini.

It starts next week. I'm curious to see how much food is in the "smaller standard share". It's supposed to feed 2 adults who eat a significant amount of berries and vegetables. So, I'm sure it'll be way more than I need, but I can always share right? I'm also thinking this will force me to eat more healthy because I'll have fresh berries and veggies on hand at all times until the end of October. That has to help healthwise right?

The CSA also provides a weekly newsletter with recipes and preservation tips, so I'm excited about that too. I'm hoping that this goes well and that I really enjoy it and feel I got my money's worth. But, I think with the berries alone I'm going to feel that way....oh and they do corn too! Corn! It won't just be a special occassion thing anymore.

Oh and the other bonus? No work on the farm required. They do it all. So you pay your fee and get your veggies. Lovin it!

I've done some research and found a few that do FAll-WINTER CSAs... unfortunately the closest one is Drumlin Farm (it's really close to my work), but they are full and have a waiting list...First shot goes to people who did it last year, second to people doing the summer CSA with them and then lastly to the waitlist...needless to say, I won't be putting my name in for that one...but I do find the idea of fresh root vegetables all winter appealing.

I'm sure I'll be posting somewhere about my first pickup.

SYTYCD -- DECISION NIGHT

Tonight we find out who will stay and who will go. It's decision night on SYTYCD.

Top 20 )

The top 20 is set. I'm pretty excited about it and as the credits roll, I see just how badly I screwed up the spelling of everyone's name.

Can't wait for Wednesday when we see our Top 20 perform.

Happy B-day

I love Vegas week. It's so much better than Hollywood week. Hopefully, SYTYCD stays true to itself and focuses on the dancing rather than the DRAH-MAH!

Showtime! )
