My Farm Share Week 7
I am up super early this morning as my husband had an early flight to catch. Therefore, I will not be able to post any photos of this week’s farm share box as my husband (a.k.a. my awesome photographer) has the camera with him.
This week, we received a bag of mixed baby greens (I [...]

My Farm Share Week 6 Wrap-Up
Good Morning Provence! Actually, I’m still in NYC but I feel as though I’ve been in Provence this week with my awesome farm share! This has been my favorite box since we’ve started receiving our weekly deliveries.
This week I made a deliciously cheesy potato and fennel gratin. I LOVE gratins and my [...]

Foreign Food Night
You may have noticed that my husband and I skipped Foreign Food Night for July. I forgot to address this earlier (sorry), but we skipped it because the first weekend of the month was the 4th of July weekend and we were in Philadelphia visiting friends. The only foreign thing I tasted there [...]

My Farm Share Week 6
Woo hoo! It’s Farm Share Wednesday! This week’s box is awesome… I feel like I’ve been transported to Provence with all the fennel, eggplants, fava beans, green beans and zucchini. We also received some of our favorite cucumbers and mixed baby greens. I’m surprised that the baby greens are doing [...]

My Farm Share Week 5 Comes to a Delicious End
I have to say, working with a humongous box of vegetables for 1.33 people (remember, my husband does not fancy vegetables - yet) really makes the week fly by. I’ve also noticed that we are ordering less take-out and going out to eat less often since we know we have all of these vegetables [...]

Good Morning Friends! It’s Farm Share Wednesday and we’ve got a really colorful bunch today. I was so excited to see so many colors when I opened this week’s box. Don’t get me wrong, green is gorgeous, but it is so nice to see some yellows and orange! And this week’s [...]

My Farm Share Week 4 in Review
Let’s see… I made some predictions last week as to what would become of these vegetables. Well, some happened and some did not. I did not make the corned beef and cabbage as corned beef was not available at the market (go figure) and I did not have 3 weeks to brine my own. So, [...]

My Farm Share Week 4
Good Morning! It’s Farm Share Wednesday! Today’s delivery has a lot of really nice variety including some familiar standards. This week we will be working with red leaf lettuce, scallions, garlic scapes, a small white cabbage, mixed baby greens, baby red onions, baby carrots and Kirby cucumbers.
Preliminarily, I’m thinking corned beef and [...]

My Farm Share Week 3 Summary
My Farm Share Week 3 came and went like a blur. We were barely home this week thanks to the long July 4th weekend so we had to really be diligent in getting our veggies eaten. Here’s how we did it:
The Napa cabbage became a delicious slaw of thinly sliced Napa cabbage, shredded [...]
