One of the CSAs has a deal that if you pick up from the farmer's market, you can pick from whatever is available, rather than their standard allotment. Next year, once I see how good I am about getting to the market, and the amount of produce I go through, I may do that. Even a half-share is a lot for a single (like me) to go through, but I may talk to the neighbors to see if we could go in together. (Half share is $250/ year, 4 items per week, a head of lettuce or a quart or bunch of smaller stuff being one item.)
Flames wouldn't be eternal if they actually consumed anything.

So, my performance review is tomorrow morning.
My boss is in town so she can do reviews in person and we'd made plans to go to dinner at this fabulous vegetarian restaurant in my neighborhood.
She just IM'd to see if I want to just do the review over dinner. That's gotta be a good sign, right?

Now tagless for your comfort.
I want a csa we can choose what we want this year. Last year's we took whatever they gave us.

OK, I really am going to keep a spreadsheet for what I spend on produce this next year at the market. Because....yeah, that's a really great deal.

I had a CSA for a chunk of time when I lived in the bay area. A CSA you choose from, though, seems more likely to be known as a farmers' market.

Our wings are not tired.
brenda, I think so. No one wants to talk ugly while dining.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.
That's gotta be a good sign, right?
I'm going to go with yes.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."
You can use daikon in pretty much any Japanese recipe in the same way. It is kinda strong, though.

Subsequent IM from my boss:
V_____, Chris (US) [8:51 PM]:
Ah! Ok...so, we will just do your review over dinner...and talk about JM, and then have fun
V_____, Chris (US) [8:51 PM]:
But your review will be fun!
So, not like I was worried. But still.
And also, here is where we're doing dinner: [link]
