Breakfast Success!

The Cheddar Chard Omelets were a great success! Adam ate his so fast I couldn't even think about getting a picture. I didn't have cheddar so instead I used parmesan and pepper jack and left out the hot sauce. Over all very good! I definitely recommend this recipe.

CSA

As I was laying in bed unable to sleep the other night I was contemplating the lack of vegetables Adam and I eat. I try to have at least one vegetable with dinner but that is not enough considering we don't eat many others throughout the day. I also hardly eat fruit. It was so bad that even Adam mentioned how he thought we needed to eat more vegs and went out and bought asparagus. At first I figured I would amend this but making a point to going to the farmers market and buying random vegs every Saturday. But I have tried that before and get nervous about buying unknown and leave with only bread and flowers instead. So I remembered about the CSA's that I had heard about in the fall and decided to check them out. I didn't do a lot of research but the little I found I was how most have limited subscribers, you pick up the box, and a year commitment. I didn't want that. I wanted the box to be delivered and to be able to back out if needed. So I found Capay Organics, Farm Fresh to You. They are a larger operation and source some of the produce from other farms but for the most part it is all northern Cali or close and it's all organic. One great feature about the website is they have many recipes for the various vegs. This is great because I will need some help. And a flyer came in the box today with farm updates and recipes for the items in the box. Yea! Looks like we will be having Chard and Cheddar Omelets tomorrow!


In our box we received: 1 large leek, 2 navel oranges, 2 fuji apples, 2 small cauliflower, 2 mucot tangerines, 1/2 lb strawberries, collards, red chard, mixed baby lettuce, 1 bunch carrots, 1 bunch asparagus, celery, and 2lbs yellow potatoes

Followers?

This may be stupid but I just realized that I have followers..... what are they and what's the point? Maybe I miss the point because I follow all my favorite (or like a 100) blogs on reader.google.com Is "following" the same type of thing? Well whatever it is, THANKS for following me! Maybe I will post more!
