CSA Week 1

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?

My new parents-in-law got us a dehydrator for the wedding. Knowing we were going to be cleaning up the garden and going to farmer's market, we took a gander at our millionth kitchen device during breakfast.   Scott added granola to his oatmeal.  The oatmeal was rather bland, just the way Brooke likes it.   Scott was actually cleaning up so I had to take a quick photo of him as proof.  Scott told me he was, "putting a blanket down for Peanut," while singing. During the winter months peanut needs a warm place to peer through the window. Seeing as it was nearly November, I setup his blanket for him. Seeing as the farmers market season is dwindling down, we headed to the market...once again. The close proximity to the cities central farmer's market has to be one of the best assets of living in NoMi. We were both amazed by the bounty of produce still on sale. We quickly filled up our first bag and took it back to the car....

Honeymoon: Madeline Island Without a Kayak? At Least We Brought Bikes.

We made it safely to Bayfield without getting attacked by any bears . I think that's because of my wily driving skills.

A Fall Farmers Market Visit

I prefer the local King Field Farmers Market or the bougie Mill City Farmers Market, but we decided to stop by the OG Minneapolis Farmers Market. Early October is peak farmers market season here in Minnesota. Scott claims the Kingfield Farmers Market has the same stuff but I don't believe it.  There's just the same stuff 5 times over at the Minneapolis Farmers Market. I'll admit this place is pretty great despite being in the armpit of a freeway.
