Market Fresh Produce
Today (real life today), I got the opportunity to volunteer with the ladies of @gardenfarmsfoundation, who offer support to community gardens (many of which are located at local schools). Their farmers market event hosted...
Radishes (Recipe)
I broke down and googled a recipe. It called for garlic butter, which I felt was a safe bet for any unknown. ((It was not.)) ((I do not like radishes.)) ((Now I know.))
Bruschetta Salsa
I didn’t know what to do with those tomatoes; they weren’t exactly tomato flavored... I’d figured I was pretty pumped for pico, and I’d had some peppers and onions, so I could probably produce a salsa...
Chocolate Tomatoes
I *think* these are called chocolate tomatoes. They were new to me, for sure. They didn’t really taste like any of the tomatoes I’d eaten before. And I wouldn’t say they were my favorite. But I ate ‘em.
Egg Bake
I made another egg bake (with my sourdough bread and farm fresh eggs). It was delicious. That is all.
Peppers
I got a bag of peppers. I don’t eat a lot of peppers. Jalapeños sometimes. I’ve had approximately six bell peppers this year. These are not those. I don’t know anything about these peppers. I don’t cook with peppers. This is a lot of fucking peppers...
CSA 4
CSA 4. It’s SO pretty. Let’s fuck it up!
Turnips
When I got this box (bag), I asked my stories what to do with turnips (and that these were turnips, right?), and mostly you didn’t know, but we started to agree that they could be boiled and mashed like potatoes — so that’s what I did. ((Also, don’t worry, my bowl is on the pill.))
Cantaloupe
I’d recently seen a woman on @thefeedfeed breaking down a cantaloupe, so I was feeling pretty (fucking) cocksure when this little fruit arrived ((they don’t like to be called that)). After I took the second photo, I...
CSA Bag Number 3
CSA *bag* number 3. The strawberries were truly delicious. You are about to find out about the rest...
Bacon Mashed Potatoes
I put the rest of my bacon in some mashed potatoes. Your applause is not necessary.
CSA Box Number 2
CSA box number two. Carrots again. More eggs. I'm going to have to make some salads. Glad I bought all those dressings.
Sourdough Boule
Along with the fruits and veggies (and eggs), I (also) received this beautiful ((this is not a loaf; is it called a boule? I think it's called a boule)) boule ((ah, shit I hope that's right)) of sourdough bread, which...
CSA Box Number 1
I joined a CSA. If you watch my stories on Instagram, you know this already. CSA stands for Community Supported Agriculture (which is to say I pay a flat fee […]
Chickpea Smash
I wanted to make some sort of hummus with all those (damn) chickpeas (and truth be told, I still have a good portion of them in my freezer), but a chickpea smash came across my feed before I could google...
Chickpeas
Melissa soaks a bag of dried chickpeas; now Melissa has a shitload of wet chickpeas.
