Pickup Day Week 16

It was muggy and 80 degrees when I picked up my veggies yesterday.  I couldn’t believe it! The first day of Fall felt a lot more like Summer. We are still reaping bits of Summer from the farm, but you can tell that the air is changing.  We look forward to enjoying what the cooler weather brings.

From left to right:

Winter Radishes! (and a “what?” I really have no idea what we’ll be doing with these guys!)

Beets

Radishes

Kale

Swiss chard

Kohlrabi

Basil

Assorted squash, peppers and tomatoes

Cabbage

And look at that fabulous pile of Roma tomatoes!! Picked by yours truly :)   I will be making another batch of sauce with these beauties.  I even purchased a food mill to help with the peels and seeds! Stay tuned for that recipe.

I’m also going to try a Chard and Chickpea Soup that sounds absolutely delicious!

I just heard it’s supposed to be 60 degrees tomorrow.  Yay, FALL!! Enjoy the new season!

    I'm a self-professed rookie in the kitchen who has opposed vegetables for much of my life. After having my son in 2008, and losing 40 pounds in 2010, I joined a CSA to broaden my knowledge of sustainable agriculture and to learn to cook with the bounties of a local farm. Follow me in my quest as I channel my inner locavore, continue my weight loss journey, and learn new ways to cook for my small family.
