Harvesting...again!


My sister would truly appreciate this...these look like Autumn in a bowl!  I got 7 organic peppers today, yellow, orange and red and cut them all up in a big, lovely, colorful bowl and then placed them in bags and promptly stuck them in the freezer.  These will be excellent in a variety of dishes this winter!


And this is only part of the haul from the CSA today...patty pan squash, heirloom tomato (no, it's not unripe, it's supposed to be orange, that's part of it's beauty!), beets, corn, lacinto kale and russian red kale, along with lemon cukes and green beans.  All organic, all local!! My favorite thing about summer is how wonderful the food is this time of year, soooo good.  This is the time of year that I have mixed emotions about, despise the heat, but sure do love the local food.  Ahhhh, harvest time is the best!

Please, please, please...do your tastebuds a favor, get to that farmer's market today!

Wishing you some wonderful, local harvest of your own, ~Peacemom
