Beans

They just needed cooked more. I added some water and cooked for about an hour. This produced more of the color and texture I am used to. I also up the spice. Mmmm..tasy.

New foodie win

In my on going quest to have mexican food not tainted with chemicals I have made another stride. Refried beans!! They turned out ok. they may need cooked more, more oil or something I have yet to think of.

CSA #3

Happily there were significantly fewer leafy greens this week and I have some idea what to do with them. (fortunately I love dill)

Broccoli (did you know that if broccoli sits under dill for 12 hours it will be infused w/ it?)
Carrots
Chinese cabbage (still confused by this one)
Salad mix (totally over the salad mix at this point)
collard greens
spinach
dill
thyme

So epicurious for me!

CSA Week #2

Also known as "Attack of the leafy green vegetables; Round 2"
This is what I like about Co-op delivery, I am forced to learn to cook things I would otherwise not buy. And forced to eat it NOW, because there will be more in 7 days. So this week's line-up

Beets
Scallions
Swiss Chard
Bok Choy
Salad Mix
Nikko Cabbage
Radishes
morecilantromuch more
tarragon

Also due to the large quantity of herbs that I have been having trouble using before they wilt I am learning to dry herbs. I hope it works.

(no subject)

Very very productive day. Laundry, groceries, studying, major post office run. Then home for dinner out with [livejournal.com profile] reedrover and [livejournal.com profile] quixotic_goat. TGIFriday's. Not my favorite but the sweet potatoe fries were delish and the company engaging as ever.

Now time to surf LJ a bit and stumble off to bed. I meant to make a music post earlier but didn't have time and am now too tired to look for the iPod.

night night LJ
