CSA week 7

I’m not doing a very good job of keep this blog up to date with stuff that I make from our CSA. We’re already up to week 7 of the CSA and here’s what we got:

  • head of lettuce
  • 2 tomatoes
  • 1 stalk/bulb of garlic
  • wax and green beans
  • yellow/orange/purple carrots
  • cucumbers
  • zucchini
  • a sprig of basil
  • 2 lbs. potatoes
  • bunch of kale
  • 1 head green cabbage
  • 1 bunch of cilantro

I’m wondering what going to happen the rest of the season especially with the potatoes and tomatoes. Because it’s been such a wet season, there’s an epidemic of blight going around. There’s been a lot of discussion on Chow about how the CSA farms are going to fare. We’ll see what happens!

Oh and on that note, I haven’t mentioned Boris and Natasha yet. They’re our two tomato plants. Boris lives in Somerville with me and Natasha lives in Nashua with Dave. Dave made those hanging planters for them out of green recyclable bags and they’re doing great! Natasha already has two little tomato buds and Boris isn’t all that far behind. Here’s hoping that they don’t get sick…

Edit: Here’s dinner from that night… roasted corn with scallion-garlic butter, stuffed zucchini, tomato salad, roasted green/wax beans with shallots.
