CSA 2010 - Week 12

While we are really enjoying this new CSA, we do feel that that the Saturday pick-up is a mistake. The veggies and fruit are excellent, but we feel like prisoners in our own house. We traveled this weekend to visit my folks, but had to leave very late on Saturday and return late Tuesday in order to have time to pick up and prep the share. It was a great visit, but having to work around the pickup was inconvenient for all involved.

We've never gotten red kuri squash before, but we use lots of butternut, so we will likely swap this in for that. Winter squashes keep forever, so we'll eat the more delicate stuff this week and keep this banked. One more onion. A small muskmelon and a small watermelon will just get eaten as is. We have a container in the fridge that has been getting refilled with melon every time we empty it, and I imagine that these will continue with the refilling. Red pepper Sage More dill

This kale is going into our winter green pizza. Tomatoes and heirloom tomatoes are finishing up for the year. These may be the last, or we may see a few more. Carrots While we have a lot of recipes that call for leeks we don't have any specific plans for this fellow. The current plan is to sub it in for part of the onions in the pizza.
