New box today, boyf was singing a little chant as we cleaned out the fridge of old gone-bad food and put the nice new fresh veggies in.
Old goes out, new goes in, only what we need!
I think that last bit was a jab at me and my newfound tendency to collect excessive amounts of local produce. I’m still kinda new to this cooking local from scratch thing, and getting the boxes delivered, and frankly, it’s a little overwhelming trying to find time to cook it all, let alone figure out what to make with it. Some of the stuff that arrives I’m not even sure what it is!
Because we often end up going to the farmer’s market anyway, we’ve decided not to continue the CSA boxes after the 4-box trial. The farmer’s market does require us getting up early on Saturdays but it’s cheap and at least we only get what we want.

You can freeze a lot of produce whole, like peppers and tomatoes. Keeps it from rotting and then you have fresh veg in the freezer!

What time do you usually go to the market? I may be interested in tagging along. :)
