For a double share that doesn't seem so unreasonable.

Europeans really dig The Wire. Bodymore, Murderland ought to have one.

Is a double share 2 people, or two whole shares? Because the shares here says they feed four (which is why I am thinking about not doing it). The weird thing is that they don't box your shares, they set up some sort of stand and you choose what you want. Which seems weird, because how to they make sure people don't take more than a share?

A single share is enough for one. A double share is for two adults. They also have a family share but our kids don't eat enough to make that worthwhile. I may just do the single share but it is less variety.

I looked into a CSA here awhile back, but some emails got lost and when I realized I had to come up with the money the next day. It was $224 for a half share, picked up every other week.

I couldn't tell if that meant you got what would equal a full share that covers two weeks or what.

But at the time it was too expensive.

However there's a nice grower's market on Wednesdays I try to go to. Not only do they have veggies (although lately it's just been greens) but bread, hand made soap, eggs, grass fed beef and goat, and milk.

Steph, I was a complete plastic faced goof that day. Couldn't keep my face still!

KC has a shitton of CSA's, but I don't think we can afford a share. There's a small Wednesday afternoon farmer's market run by a former co-worker biology teacher that I like, a Saturday market about 8 blocks from my house that I'll have to check out, and, of course, the ginormous downtown market on weekends. I totally splurge on tomatoes, homebaked breads and preserves and peaches and berries in the summer.

I also found a CSA that sells meats and has delivery dates at a high school 5 blocks from my house. It's .30 extra/lb if you're not a member, but it would be worth it for some bacon, pork chops, brats and chicken. The free range chicken is $5, and since we only need a 1.5 lb. bird, that is doable occasionally!

Hmm. It's chilly here today. I got a pink ombre pashmina yesterday at Pier 1 for $14, and I feel like season 4 Buffy!

I cleaned out the fridge, had to toss half the produce bin and two tubberware things of leftovers. bad food management this week. work provide lunch two days and it threw me off. oh well. on to this week. I am going to cook up some more pasta to go with the sauce I still have. some rice to go with another can of Indian food and I think dinner one night will be tomato soup with grilled cheese.

I need to buy more salad greens and some cabbage to make slaw. Maybe I'll get some chicken into some marinade tonight also and cook it up tomorrow night.

If calling Timothy Hutton a sexy bitch counts.

Mmmm, it does. And he is.

I bought some grass fed ground beef a couple weeks ago at the farmer's market and didn't eat it until this past week.

I was going to make burgers but I ended up using it in pasta sauce. It was so good and really held the flavor through the pasta sauce (Mario Batali's brand which is tasty). And I used whole wheat or whole grain pasta. I noticed that I ate a bit slower than normal to savor how tasty it was and also I felt full faster. I'm going to chalk that up to the slower eating and the whole wheat pasta.

I'm trying to eat healthier and so far my goal is to cook and eat something healthy for part of the week and then try for fast easy (yet healthy) options at the end of the week.

I've subscribed to the Clean Eating Magazine and made quite a few recipes most of them I liked.

But I wish I could find a healty cookbook geared towards 1 or 2 people.

Dammit, St. Louis has 4 Trader Joe's. Why can't Kansas City have just one?
