csa summer (part 4)

 Week 8:  Zucchinis (because it's always zucchini), summer squash, pattypan squash, green beans, corn on the cob, blackberries, ivory bell peppers, anaheim peppers, jalapenos, peaches, cantaloupe and dinosaur kale.  Ate the corn on the second day but the beans were not good; the blackberries were fragile so I stuck them in some oatmeal; made tacos with lots of peppers and diced pattypan squash; the kale went into a tofu scramble.  This has been the weakest box so far: too much squash and squishy berries.


Week 9:  Tomatoes, watermelon, corn on the cob, green beans, peaches, a nectarine, carrots, picking cucumbers, green peppers, jalapenos, tomatilloes and pears.  We ate the corn and beans on the second day; the tomatoes were fantastic; made atomic pickles with the cucumbers; one week later the pears were still unripe; white bean and tomatillo soup.


Week 10: Corn on the cob, banana peppers, plum tomatoes, green pepper, two watermelons, pears, nectarines and peaches (eight peaches!).  Ate the corn first day; added banana peppers to a tofu scramble; made jackfruit chile verde tacos with green pepper, banana peppers, jalapenos and tomatoes; watermelon-peach-pear smoothies; and because the watermelon was a little past its prime, frozen watermelon margaritas.
