It's Starting....

So we pick up our inaugural half share from the Myerov Family Farm CSA this evening, and I have to say that we're excited and a little worried. How much are we going to get? Will we be able to cook it all? Will the kids eat any of it? What'll our favorites be? What will the kid's favorites be? On and on and on. You get my drift.

With that all said, we're really looking forward to it. Grace & I went through some of entries from a blog done a couple years ago by a local couple who had a share. A lot of what they got looked great. Grace was really intrigued by the luffa squash. You may recognize it more as a loofah, but either way, it's kinda cool to see where the come from, and how to make the finished product. She's also really excited about any and all fruit we may get. Shocker, I know.

I'm torn between excited to try new, tasty things and wary about trying to figure out good things to make with all these new, tasty things. It'll be interesting to see how much I can flex my cooking chops. It'll also be interesting to see if I can get Grace to help us chop some of them. She's big enough to handle a paring knife. Actually, proportionally, it's much like a chef's knife to her, and she's had a little practice, but you have to start them with the right skills early. At least that's what I've heard.

Thanks for joining us on this little journey of ours. Hopefully, it will be fun and interesting.
