It was a CSA week this past Saturday and we got a pretty amazing box. My bag was exploding with produce as I lugged it home. It had to be the heaviest one yet!
What We Bought:
-
Boone Green Beans
-
Cappuccino SweetCorn
-
Yukon Gold Potatoes
-
Pristine apples
-
Cauliflower
-
Red Beets
-
Cherry tomatoes
-
Eggplant
-
Green Peppers
-
Napa Cabbage
-
Summer Squash
-
White Onions
- Oberweis milk from family farms around IL and WI
- Turano bread from Berwyn, IL
What We Learned:
- K does not like Napa cabbage. We chopped some up for a slaw with our BBQ chicken tacos and after a taste, he promptly refused to ruin his taco with it.
- Shelling peas is intensive work and that is why they sat in the back of the fridge until they were finally composted.

Besides our CSA box, I picked up a vibrant sunflower at the farmer’s market. She’s so pretty.
