After fadethecat agreed to split the take with me, I finally broke down and joined a CSA. Full of enthusiasm and determination to not waste food/eat out less, I actually cooked with this produce today. Breakfast was a green tomato omelette, and dinner was roasted beet and fennel salad and wilted beet greens. (And chicken from the grocery store, because I have limits.) Not only was this all delightful, but I actually consumed more than 100% RDA of potassium today. I don't think this has ever happened before. Either 118% causes organ failure, or I'll be able to fold space tomorrow.

Now I have zucchini, summer squash, and kale to get through, and still more fennel. Luckily, I just found a recipe for Portuguese fennel soup.

I would like Derek Jacobi to narrate all my transitions.

Pan-seared swordfish steaks with garlic and lemon and spinach, and cauliflower with cheese? Epic win. I lament my earlier virtue at the store, because I really want a dessert now.
