Oh, and something else fun - yesterday a friend from undergrad, Jeremy, was passing through Olympia with his wife Cassidy and two kids and we got together at a local park. We haven't seen each other since another friends wedding years ago, so this was a fun treat. They live in Oregon now, and we're already planning a camping trip together for the end of July down by the beach. Jeremy's a professor of marine biology so I'm hoping he can teach us all about the local tide pool inhabitants. How awesome is that?? I can't wait.
A bit late, but here was our veggie share from this past week. We're getting a good mix, I think. I wish we were getting some spinach and arugula and kale, but overall I'm pretty happy with what we are getting. This week I again ate all the shell peas pretty much instantly. Maybe someday I'll actually cook them, but I love them raw, right out of the shell. We also got sugar snap peas this week, and while I usually love them, these were a bit tougher than I like. We've had such hot, dry weather I think it's really taking a toll on some of the veggies (like peas!). Oh well, they were still pretty good. I made zucchini bread right away, and also cooked swiss chard with some of the garlic in olive oil and pretty much ate it straight out of the pan. Yum.
