I just discovered that I like beets! Because I thought it would be fun, I joined Harvest Astoria CSA...extraordinary beet givers. This blog is an account of all the beets I get, and what I end up doing with them and all the fruit and vegetable friends they come with. Hopefully I'll be able to share new recipes and get some helpful tips along the way.

Week 7 Pick-Up
Veggies:
cucumbers 2.5 lbs
squash 2 lbs
greens 1 lb
eggplant 1 lb
peppers 3 each
Perslane 1/2 lbs
basil 1/3 lb
Watermelon/Melon 1 each
dandelion 1/3 lb
tomatillos .4 lbs

corn 2 each

Apricots 3 lbs

And of course, our Bi-Monthly eggs, butter and yogurt.
We definitely underestimated how much we were going to love this yogurt. Next year, we're getting the large container weekly.
Time to get jamming! Look at all this fruit! It's insane!....and delicious. There is definitely something to be said for food picked no more than a day before you eat it.
