My Farm Share Week 9 Comes To An End
For some reason, I was much more efficient in getting our vegetables eaten this week. Usually, I am frantically trying to find new and exciting ways to use the vegetables and I just barely manage to get it done in time for this post. One trick I’ve learned is to cook the vegetables at night [...]

My Farm Share Week 8 in Review
This week has been a whirlwind and I must admit I am a bit behind in using all of my vegetables. I am going to finish them up tonight though. It was a challenge getting all of the vegetables eaten in 6 day’s time this week as I have been super busy with work and [...]

My Farm Share Week 7 Summary
This week, the flavors and aromas coming from my kitchen were all over the map. From the American Deep South to Latin America to India. The pole beans I received this week were a bit tough so I braised them into submission with tomatoes, onions and garlic. This dish reminds me of my Great-Grandma Hollingsworth, [...]

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 husband and [...]
