Well we just got our first portion from a CSA, community supported agriculture, co-opt that my friend and I are sharing. We get a portion of the crops each week from now until the end of the growing season. This week we received some green onions, strawberries and peas. So we have already eaten the strawberries and half of the peas, and I put half of the green onions in our salad. It will be good for me to participate in this since I seem to get stuck eating the same food, especially veggies. We used the peas in my tortilla pasta dish that does not call for peas but I added them in. I am a person who goes by the book or follows the recipe and is not really willing or creative enough to deter from it or add to it. So this will be good to try new veggies and to add them into my dishes. It will also be good for the kids to see us buying from a local farmer and supporting a good cause.
The first few days of summer have been busy and somewhat long. We had a few issues on Tuesday with "what are we doing today" but today was better. The girls played better today, yesterday they were yelling at each other and not playing with each other. So it was a better day. I have a few ideas of one day road trips that we will take so that will be fun and we tried to go to the strawberry patch but it was closed for strawberry picking. So I will just take it one day at a time and see how it goes.
Things I am grateful/thankful for:
-Support local agriculture
-getting better sleep
-not having my heal hurt right now, I think I have a heal spur and I have been on ibuprofen the last few days
