How are we already EIGHT weeks into our Fresh Fork summer share? It may seem weird to say this – and somewhat cheesy – but I feel like it’s become a part of B and me. We look forward to picking up our weekly share, trying the new recipes and enjoying all the glorious fresh … Continue reading Fresh Fork Week 8 – And Fennel, Tomato and Avocado Salad {Recipe}
I’m slacking off this week. Thursday after our CSA pickup, I didn’t take a picture of everything we got. Shocker, I know … but I can assure you that nearly everything has been eaten AND enjoyed already. Here’s what we got: 1 whole chicken, approx 5 lbs 1 lb yellow wax beans or green beans 1 shallot 1 … Continue reading Summer Yellow Beans with Onions, Lentils and Toasted Almonds (And a mini Fresh Fork Week 7 Recap)
We missed an entire week of our CSA thanks to our travels to Milwaukee (I’m not that sad because our trip was awesome and everyone needs a week of beer, brats, cheese and jelly beans away from their CSA right?), so no recap for last week’s supplies. We took the week off and instead have … Continue reading Fresh Fork Week 6 and B Cooks: Pasta with Zucchini and Garlic in a Red Sauce {Recipe}
Week Four of Fresh Fork was the first week that did not include any meat. I know, right – that meant tons of even more great greens and other veggies. And cheese! OH cheese. How do I love thee. Anyway, I digress. We picked up Week Four and were greeted with the following: Week 4: … Continue reading Fresh Fork CSA Week Four And An Asian-Inspired Bok Choy Stir Fry {Recipe}
Week Three of Fresh Fork was great! I’m so excited to be getting all of this fresh produce and meat each week and not have to plan meals. It’s so easy to just use what I have as opposed to making a trip to the grocery store to pick everything up. Yup, I’m drinking the … Continue reading Fresh Fork CSA Week Three And Tomato, Corn, Onion and Cilantro Salsa {Recipe}

But you’ll have to wait to hear about that – because this post is to share with you what we did with week two. (Week one, plus … Continue reading Fresh Fork CSA Week Two And Kohlrabi Slaw {Recipe}
Do you like fruit? I love fruit. Fresh, juicy fruit is something I crave pretty much year-round. When I was pregnant last year, I couldn’t get enough fruit. And now, FW is a fruit fiend. He’ll eat pretty much any fruit! This time of year especially, I can’t get enough stone fruit. Nectarines. Peaches. Cherries. … Continue reading Fresh Cherry and Double Chocolate Almond Scones
This weekend was a fun-filled, pre-planned celebratory weekend for B! Why? Because B had a milestone birthday. I’m not going to say how old … but I’m sure you can figure it out 🙂 Anyway, we started off the celebrations somewhat early – Thursday night, I planned a night to Hilarities to see one of B … Continue reading B is for B’s Birthday!
I realllly wanted to call this salad The Best Summer Quinoa Salad Ever, but that was too ambiguous. Or even Quinoa, Kale, Black Bean, Avocado, Tomato, Onion, Hot Pepper, Corn Salad with a Lemon Vinaigrette but that just seemed like too long of a name and you would probably would have stopped reading then.

There are some vegetables that just shout farmers market or CSA to me. Mustard Greens. Garlic Scapes. Kohlrabi. Fennel.

Last … Continue reading Meatless Monday: Roasted Fennel and Carrots
