CSA Farm Share 2011: Week 8

Because I'm lame, I only ended up with a half share this week, but this is a list of what I would have had, had I not screwed up. A lot more this week in the purple end of things (which in this case includes red), and next week should be even more. Kind of a sucky week for me to screw up, especially since my own basil plant died of neglect. It was also a bad week for it because we busted ass over the weekend to use up all the leftover veggies. Isn't it ironic, don't you think?

• 2 bunches Red Onions (+tops)
• 2 bunches Celery
• 4 Summer Squash
• 4 Cucumbers
• 6 Asian Eggplant
• 2 bunches Basil
• 2 lbs Purple Potatoes
• 6 Green Peppers

Another minimal week on the preservation front. My drying plans didn't happen and we ended up cooking the cabbage. But there were many red spring onions and assorted new potatoes that were turned into caramelized onion mashed potatoes. Most of that went to a potluck and the rest I froze in muffin tins for portioned sides come winter.
