Week 1

Yesterday was an exciting day because we received our first share delivery! It arrived early in the morning since it was such a hot day in Boston, so I kept the veggies and eggs at my desk at work until I could get them home. Cool thing I learned: farm fresh eggs don't need to be refrigerated! Maybe that's a well-known fact, but this city girl was surprised. Apparently, you can keep them at room temperature for a couple of days. Here's some information on that, in case you're interested.

So, without further ado, this week's crop included (drumroll, please!):

• Two types of lettuce
• Spinach
• Kale
• Green onions
• Some weird looking thing that I don't know what to call... oh, wait, it's a kohlrabi!
• Eggs (I also snagged an extra carton of eggs because there was a vegan who didn't want them. Score one for us!)
• Strawberries

It's quite the assortment! And, with Todd and I both busy and away this weekend (Oh, you know, Todd's just riding 150 miles on his bike for MS. No big deal), it will be quite the task to not break rule number two (no waste, remember?) 

Wondering what we made as our first fresh and local meal? Stay tuned for the recap and recipe tomorrow!
