Week 2

So, that was fast! Here we are in week two already. Yesterday, I picked up our second share, which was full of some old friends (ahem, kohlrabi) and some new veggies to experiment with.


Here's the week two lineup:

  • Red leaf lettuce
  • Russian kale
  • Kohlrabi
  • Napa cabbage
  • Shelling peas
  • Pea tendrils
  • Classic french cheese from Shy Brothers Farm in Westport, MA
By the way, the cabbage takes up half of the fridge!



I can say for certain that you won't be seeing any recipes with the cheese. That's because we already ate it! It's been a nice snack for while we're cooking dinner, especially on delicious stoneground wheat crackers from Whole Foods! Here's a picture of Todd and the cheese:


Also, you may be wondering what we did with some of the week one items that we didn't mention... like the strawberries and eggs. I had some leftover shortbread from my strawberry shortcake baking this weekend, so Todd and I made some more whipped cream and used our share strawberries for that. A perfect dessert, if I don't say so myself. Todd has also eaten a few of the eggs, but we have a great recipe coming for you soon - a delicious weekend breakfast recipe that you can make with basically anything you have on hand. You'll definitely have to come back for that one.

Here we go, week two!
