First haul! Woo and HOO! This is all of everything except only half the strawberries since my mom left hers at home but brought the rest over so we could split it up together. Since I'm going on a business trip next week and don't think I'll get around to too much cooking, I'm going to eat the favas and snowpeas raw. The bok choy will be a stir fry with tempeh and the strawberries are obviously smoothie stuff. I had trouble with what to do with the rhubarb since I'm not so into the sugar. I chopped it up and threw a small handfull into my strawberry smoothie this morning and it was so good! Not bitter at all!




Smoothie

Approximate ingredients
1/2c rice milk
1/4c strawberries
1/8c rhubarb

YAAAAAAAAAAAAAYYYY!!!
On the hayride around the farm, every time they pointed out something else that we'd be getting in our first box next week, Jen would turn and look at me or Bec would squeal just a little bit and I would go YAY!! inside my head.
This is going to be so much fun!
