This is going to be the first post in a series called “Husband Alone with the CSA.” Lindsay has been away for work for two weeks. I’ve been travelling 3 days a week as well. Although I’ve been trying to share our bounty with friends and neighbors, I still have had to cook my way out from under a big pile of produce each week. The biggest challenge has been the menu planning. I’m . . . → Read More: How to Make Roasted Squash with Chile Vinaigrette

The winter farmer’s market has been steadily winding down, to the point where it’s all prepared foods, bread, jams, etc. However, the summer version hasn’t yet started. We’re also in between CSA shares. Everything gets back to normal next week, but it’s been slim pickings!
