Shrift, they are both cute, but I totally love that linen one.

I just put some broccoli and cauliflower on to roast but I haven't figured out what to have with it yet.

I love the green in that second one. I just painted my bathroom almost that color.

I can't remember where I read it, but at least one nutritionist blog I follow says that whole wheat pasta is bullshit and not to bother. (Basically that the word "whole" is only health-relevent when it refers to an intact grain - aka brown rice - and nsm when the grain has been processed, purified, and then had the individual elements reconstituted to approximate the same germ-to-bran-to-hull proportions of a whole grain.)

Tonight we had lamb sausages with a chickpea and tomato salad.

With the optional fruit and egg shares (veggies are mandatory), my CSA is about $600 for the season, and a full share is enough for 4 omnivores (or 2 pretty hungry vegetarians) every week. Splitting a full share is a much better deal than buying a half-share for me - the pickup for half shares is every other week, and there are sometimes things that the half shares just don't get.

It might be Marion Nestle, or maybe that was just about bread.

The lost sheep grow teeth, forsake their lambs, and lie with the lions.

I just sent an email off to our local CSA. I'm going to have to split a share with someone - there's no way I could a) afford b) consume an entire share.

Back tattoos of the mother is that you are absolutely right - Ame

I wonder if this dress, in red, would look good on me. Potential MOB?

I also looked into nearby CSA's and there is one with a pickup close to me. A single share is $468 for 26 weeks of veggies. They also do shares of fresh eggs, fruit, mushrooms, bread, and flowers. And I think you can special order meat too.

That sounds right - pasta and bread are pretty much nutritional equivalents.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

There is no CSA near me. I will starve. Or have to subsist on fast food and peanut butter.

Huh. Thunder. Unexpected.

Ooh, I would love a mushroom CSA! The mushroom vendor at the greenmarket is pretty expensive. (I think I once paid $15 for a hen-of-the-woods mushroom. It was ginormous, but still, $15 for a mushroom!)

There's a meat CSA around here I've been meaning to check out - their prices are definitely better than the food coop for organic meat.
