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, December 21 - Wednesday December 28

This week's box was a surprise. Last year we got cabbage and cauliflower each week for months on end. This week's box included neither of these gems. And the portions of what was included would be perfect for one large holiday dinner. Thanks, Terra Firma!

In this week's box:
- 2 leeks
- a dozen Satsuma Mandarins
- 10 or so potatoes
- 4 sweet potatoes
- 6 or so parsnips
- 2 heads broccoli
- bunch carrots
- bag baby spinach
- bunch Dino kale
- 3 lemons
- 5 Granny Smith (including one as big as my head!)

Leftover from the last 2 weeks:
- 3 Asian Pears
- 1 lemon
- 12 mandarins
- 1/4 bag arugula
- head of cabbage
- garlic
- one head escarole -- which I somehow missed last week!
