Having a dog certainly gets you out into the world a bit more. Before pup came along we weren't really noticed on the street except by our immediate neighbors and the really nice group of gentlemen who sit out down near the el tracks. Now, we have regular people that we see and talk to, and are constantly meeting new people. (Including the neighbor down the way that really hates us, but that's another story). Pre-pup, we were pretty invisible, post-pup we talk to loads of people and know more neighbors, and neighbors dogs and kids. Its pretty impressive and I enjoy feeling part of the community.
As for food, the wonderful Farmer Ted provided the CSA this week with Kohlrabi, beautiful rainbow radishes, kale, mixed greens (with more romaine this time) a cucumber and more of those delish zucchini. The fruit share people continue to gorge on strawberries and cherries. Yum yum yum. Also of note to those who are interested, the CSA will take compost from its members. Just bring it when you pick up and dump it in the bin... (I don't know their specific rules, but as a general guideline never include anything other than veg and coffee grinds - even egg shells can be problematic).Should be popping out for another brunch and park day tomorrow with the pups, think we will try June this time, I am thinking ricotta pancakes...

I didn't get cherries this week.
Hmmmmm....
umm, my bad. thought i saw some there, but i don't get the fruit share (unfortunately). how were the peaches this week??
They're still ripening. :)
We're waiting for them to soften up a little before we get into them.
By the way, if you try that cous cous recipe in the newsletter, I'd recommend cutting the salt in half and tasting before adding more.
We made it with Quinoa and added the salt recommended in the recipe and it was literally dead sea salad.
