Sorry about posting so late!
This week we had an adventure getting our food boxes. (that's just what we call them at my house) The delivery guys had locked the keys in the truck while they ate lunch AT MCDONALDS!!!. Anway, into each life some junkfood must fall.
Renee and I drove out to pick up the food - so thank you to everyone for waiting so patiently at the community center for us to return. For our trouble, the guys gave us a basket of peaches and a crate of cherry tomatoes.
When we returned, Anna worked on handing out the boxes, adding peaches and tomatoes to each one. Didn't take long and we were on our way home. Wednesdays have become somewhat exciting around my house, to see what we got and what we're having for supper!
This week I did not add the cinnamon rolls to my order - I have no sense about them - and I'm sure I've said this before, maybe on the blog. If so, please forgive me, I'm on 4 list serves and have a personal blog too, I may tell you the same thing 6 times and never remember that I've done so.
So my box included (and remember I'm getting the 1/2 bushel, the $35.00 box)
1 huge cantaloupe
3 yellow squash
4 very nice size cucumbers
1 jalapeno
2 garlic bulbs
1 sprig fresh parsley
6 ears of corn
3 bell peppers
1 pint blackberries
1 eggplant
Add to that the extra peaches and tomatoes so we had a good haul.
Since I've gotten so many bell peppers, and some of you may have to, if you cannot use them all now you can freeze them quite easily for use later.
Wash, core and chop them. I measure out 1/2 cup into a snack size zip lock or wax paper. Seal or wrap tightly. I then put whatever little packages I've accumulated into a zipper freezer bag. Whenever you need green pepper, just take out 1 or 2 packages - you can crumble with your hand into whatever you are mixing/making.
