Veggie Box - Week 8
Friday, August 8th, 2008Last week I mentioned that there is corn growing at the location where I pick up my veggies box. That shouldn’t be all that crazy as I do live in Illinois one might think. Oh but it is. The “location” is the front lawn of a regular house in a [...]
Veggie Box - Week 6
Friday, July 25th, 2008Wow, have I actually caught up with the veggie boxes? Of course, I have plenty of other things to blog about- like my reunion barbeque, my roses, amusement parks, the zoo, fat baby thighs, the fact I am on major antibiotic for cellulitis (which is beyond gross) after having a nasty fall a week ago, [...]
Veggie Box Week 5
Thursday, July 24th, 2008I’m slowly catching up, this is the box from 7/17. This was a fun week to get because we were having a barbeque on the following Saturday. I was trying to figure out some recipes where we could use some of our box items.
The barbeque was fun. I had my 20 year high school reunion [...]

Veggie Box - Week 3
Monday, July 7th, 2008I’m late getting this out, but last Thursday was another day for my CSA box. Christmas in July I tell ya. I can’t begin to explain how fun it is to go through those boxes. You have an idea of what you’re going to get, but you aren’t 100% sure. And [...]
My second veggie box (and sorry I forgot a title before publishing)
Friday, June 27th, 2008Last week I received this summer’s first veggie box from our local CSA. Everything was scrumptious. Well, most everything. I wasn’t a fan of the garlic scapes- they were too bitter. I also have never liked green onions so I didn’t try those.
Yesterday I picked up box #2. And here are [...]
WFMW - Community Supported Agriculture
Tuesday, June 24th, 2008If you’ve been reading my blog, you’ll know that last week, we received the summer’s first vegetable box from our CSA. CSA stands for “Community Supported Agriculture.” Basically, that means we have purchased a share of the summer’s harvest from a local, organic farm. Each week we get a box full [...]
Veggie Box #1
Friday, June 20th, 2008Way back in February, when it was probably 10-20 degrees here in the Windy City, I mentioned that I miss my summer Thursdays. Well, I’m happy to announce they are officially back!
Every Friday you will probably see a similar post from me. I am going to be documenting the 3/4 bushel veggie box [...]
