Mmmmm. 13.5 pounds of vegetables.
The season is starting to turn. I can tell from the produce. It now qualifies as "late spring / early summer". No more shungiku ... and the first of the season's garlic scapes, broccoli, and garlic.
I have no idea what to do with the artichokes. They are tiny! Maybe I'll pickle their hearts.
It takes me a long time to take care of the box (metonymously speaking). Bjorn and I walk to get the box (30 minutes = there and back). Then I care for the veggies as necessary (wipe, dry, partition, etc.) before I store them ... that takes at least an hour.
Our fridge is 3/4 full of vegetables; meat, fruit, nuts, and leftovers are relegated to the corners.
Listed pseudo-randomly:
♣ broccoli (ours looks purple compared to the stuff in the store) • snow peas • beet greens (with tiny tiny root beets — these are beets that are being thinned out) • mizuna • garlic scapes • spinach • red mustard greens • arugula • garlic (fresh) • artichokes • salad turnips • bok choy • turnip greens • lettuce • carrots • scallions • chard • beets (with greens) • kale
