I live in San Francisco, and my husband and I get a Terra Firma Farm CSA veggie box once a week. It has forced me to be mindful about what I cook, and to explore new recipes -- what do you do with persimmons? However, I find that most weeks I have some piece of greenery left wilting in the crisper, some piece of fruit molding in the fruit bowl. This blog signals a new commitment to using up all of the veggies. I will share recipes and ideas, and hope that you will share yours as well.

Week 1: July 20: What's in the box?

In this week's veggie box:

- 1/2 watermelon
- 9 tomatoes
- 4 yellow onions
- 3 zucchini
- 1 Armenian cucumber
- 2 lbs. of new potatoes
- bunch of basil
- 3 peaches
- 1 plum

I love our veggie box in the summer, mostly because I could eat insalata caprese all day every day. Summer veggies are so easily prepared and eaten; many of these things are best on their own or with a pinch of salt and pepper.
