CSA Week 1

Image
By
I'm pretty excited that we joined a CSA (Community Supported Agriculture) this year. Scott was worried it would keep us from going to the farmers market. Our share is for a small family, but we eat more than 5 things of produce in a week so I'm pretty sure we'll still be going to the markets. 


For our first week we got spinach, salad turnips, tarragon, salad mix and bok choy. I love that we don't know what were going to get. We were supposed to get green garlic, but somehow that was missing. I don't mind since we have plenty growing in our yard.

I was guessing what CSA could be before I started reading. I was wrong. :)
What do you use bok choy for?

A Tettegouche Camp Cabin and Roller Garden Brooke Birthday

By
Saturday It's become a yearly tradition to stay at a cabin for my birthday. Since Saturday night was the only night that worked for us this year, our locations to stay at were slim. We had casually checked places all week. We hoped to stay somewhere with snow, but all those places were far away or booked. We decided to wait to see what was available on Saturday.

The Last Open Streets Ever?

By
We had one last week of summer so Meadow and I went swimming one last time this year. It was unseasonably warm for early October in Minneapolis.    Good morning sleepy bear. It's Open Streets day on Lyndale!    Meadow had been asking for Swedish pancakes so that is what I made today. Hmmm... I wonder if she remembers when we had Swedish pancakes up on the Gunflint Trail  at Loon Lake Lodge . Man, do we have to go back there. I think that's what gave her the idea.  These were awfully delicious. Where can folks get the recipe? I think I just used the first result in Google.  We didn't realize until today that Meadow's bike is much too small for her. Sorry kiddo. Looks like we'll be on the hunt for a new one for her. We biked on our wonderful front yard bike lanes and then over to Lyndale.    We ended up parking our bikes since the street was so crowded. They really should split it so bikes are on one side and pedestrians on the other. This might be the last Open Stree

Backcountry Camping with Kids in Theodore Roosevelt National Park

By
Day 1  Back in May I stumbled upon Theodore Roosevelt National Park. I had no idea there was a National Park in North Dakota and that it was the northern end of the Badlands. Usually our summer vacations coincide with Scott's work trips. Since he didn't have any this summer I thought we should take advantage of actually taking a vacation. What, my workcations are always classics? I suppose a second real vacation this year wouldn't hurt. We definitely have more time than normal. As long as we took Covid-19  precautions and avoided people. We finally settled on a time to go. Blake joined us so we borrowed our dad's van so we could ride together. Scott had just driven from Michigan the day before. Blake had met my parents in Wisconsin to get the van and then drove from Duluth to pick us up. I offered to drive since I literally only drive twice a month.  I was still pretty tired from a long drive home. Since we were near Fergus Falls we had to stop by the abandoned state ho
