It is week 21. Things are morphing into those fall veggies. There are really wonderful items in this box.

What did we get?

Salad Mix
Red butterhead lettuce
Radishes
Sunflower sprouts
Red Bok Choy
Potatoes
Collard Greens
Basil
Green Beans
Broccoli
Green Cabbage
Baby Eggplant

I already made pesto with the basil and used some of the sprouts in tonight’s salad.

We made venison chili today, using freezer and CSA items from the past few weeks.

As for making pesto, it was standard.

At the moment, I am having computer problems on my “piece of garbage” Microsoft system, and my husband’s won’t cooperate and let me open my files correctly (another Microsoft product). I really need to trash all of them and get an iBook.

Oh well. at least I got a post up.

About AnnieRie

Retired, I am following my dream of living in quiet western Howard County, a rural oasis, not far from the urban chaos, but just far enough. I love to cook, bake, garden, and travel. I volunteer at Howard County Conservancy, mostly supporting grounds, gardens, programs and activities. I love the things we do, particularly supporting events that show children all the wonders of nature, and the agricultural connection to their food.
