CSA Share, Week 23
November 6th, 2008
My three-year-old may be absconding with the carrots, but I assure you he won’t eat any of them unless they’re pureed and baked into a muffin with lots of chocolate chips.
This week we received 2 of the largest beets I have ever seen in my life, a quart of potatoes, Toscano kale, a small cabbage, the carrots, parsnips (yum), and 2 carnival squash.
I have 4 carnival squash now (2 from a previous week), so I’m thinking I may just hold onto them and make something with them for Thanksgiving. I’ll definitely roast the parsnips. Otherwise, I’m undecided on how everything else will be used. I’ve got an extra week to finish it all up, as there is no pick up next week. And after that, just two weeks left in our 2008 share. I need to get my 2009 forms in before I forget!

It looks like he has flowered socks on…but I am sure they are something much more masculine than that!;O) Dinosaurs?
They’re animals — tigers, zebra, etc. He calls them his “jungle socks.” He is as big a fan of fun socks as you and me! — Dara

My friend is making ‘mashed parsnips’ again for a Thanksgiving side dish that she swears by.
