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.

Wednesday, September 21: This Week's Box

I am sad to report that the strain of dog obedience class and the gravitational pull of Ragazza around the corner meant that we still have the following left:

- the last bits of basil -- they are wilty and drying out
- 1 pepper
- 2 weeks worth of green beans
- garlic
- onions
- 1 last yellow tomato

One good stirfry will take care of most of that stuff, but I will include it in my new plan for the week.

This week, we have a beautiful array:
1/2 canteloupe
1/2 watermelon
bunch of grapes
5 or 6 Black Mission figs
1 sweet yellow pepper
5 or 6 tomatoes
1 small eggplant
2 onions
handful of green beans
2 pounds or so of potatoes
