This week in my CSA from Farm City Co-Op I got:

• Basil
• Carrots
• Eggplant
• Chard
• Peppers
• Potatoes
• Tomatoes
• Shoots (Pea or Radish)
• Summer Squash & Zucchini
• And HONEY bitches!!!!! (I’m a wee bit excited about that.)

No snippet of what I did with this week’s bounty - again. Because I was in Kelowna visiting family and I’ve spent the past 2 days getting caught up on about a billion email messages. But my week was pretty darn eventful: Fall apples on the weirdest apple trees I’ve ever seen; The lunch of an entrepreneur - leftover roasted carrots, leftover salsa, leftover toasted walnuts and stale melba toasts; Cheers, Kelowna; Big open spaces; Momma Deb and her giant pumpkin; 4 of my favourite things in the world - FBC2014 Pre-Conference swag (the knife), antlers, bourbon in old fashioned rocks glasses and basil; Tuna with tabbouleh and shaved fennel; My new tattoo artwork is coming along from one stellar chick.

Check out more of the stuff I chowed down on via my Instagram Feed (because I pretty much live there).
