No CSA box this week. Wait; what?!
Yes, Reader, I canceled it. The holidays are upon us and L. and I are out a few nights this week. Also, we will be away the following week and I am in full-on order-less-and-go-away-with-a-preemptively-empty-fridge-and-no-waste mode. And (let’s be honest), I am a bit tired of L.’s dinnertime anti-root vegetable litanies (nothing that I won’t be saying in my head mid-January) so am indulging him with avocado and very end of season broccoli rabe, two of his favorites, this week.
Sigh. Update: The weather is grey and dreary, and I am still slogging through my variety of cabbages. One more main dish, with the remains thrown into a few dishes here and there, and I think I will be done.
Last but not least, I did not post many recipes last week, nor photos on Instagram. While we ate well, nothing really triggered my “must share” instinct. And I am behind on posting my carrot soup recipe. Mea culpa; I will get to that today.
Because of my lack of both CSA box and sharing this week, enjoy (again), for this last menu of the autumn season, the photo of the quite appropriate sticker which I photographed in D.C. on a pedestrian crossing light.
