I ended up with a little more variety than originally expected, but we seem to have eaten through way more of our veggies last week than I planned. I picked up a few extra things – cauliflower and an acorn squash from the grocery store to help. I am also trying a completely new (to […]

It is Thanksgiving week and we are breaking up our veggie routine by giving a new local CSA program a whirl. I love the flexibility that picking up my CSA at Johnson’s Backyard Garden at the market offers, but I figured it was time to give someone else a shot. That someone else is Farmhouse […]

Greetings from an unusually cold Austin! I had grand plans to get my week of meals kickstarted over the weekend, but something had me feeling icky. There were some germs in the vicinity so it was collectively decided that I should not be in charge of any food prep with potentially germ-ridden hands. Feeling way better now, […]
