There have been requests for pictures of our produce delivery, so here you go. This weeks box includes apples, pears, bananas, oranges, grapefruit, kiwis, radishes, baby romaine, broccoli, carrots, and tomatoes.
So far I've only cut up a few radishes for our salad last night, and I just had another of the seriously tasty apples. Gala apples are the best. I don't know why I've been messing around with Granny Smith apples for my entire life.
I'm not too sure what I'm going to do with the broccoli. My first thought was to toss it with some pasta, onions, cheese and a balsamic reduction. However, the Kovixen reminds me that broccoli causes gassy babies. And we definitely don't want any gassy babies around these parts.
Also, I'm watching the NFL draft right now. Am I missing something or has Leinart still not been chosen? Nope, I'm definitely not missing something. I guess rookie quarter backs just aren't what they used to be. Maybe everybody is hoping he falls to the 6th round where all the quality QBs are chosen. Ahh, just chosen. Pick number 10. Weird. Clearly this is why I typically never pay attention to the NFL draft. It never makes any sense!
i don't know about gassy babies, but what i do know is that roasted broccoli kicks ASS. you just cut it up in even little pieces, put it in a pan with olive oil, salt, pepper, and cut-up garlic. roast at 400. stir every 15 minutes or so until browned. mm. SO GOOD. oh, and it's really good on this "barilla complete" pasta, which has whole grains and protein (good for vegetarians) but doesn't taste like a wheat stick.mm
