Boxing Day, October 4

Autumnal colors of reds and greens and browns

Heya John,

The cold arrived last week. We’re searching for sweaters and sweatshirts. Pulling out the pants and quilts. We made two different lentil squash soups last week. Autumn is arriving and we’re almost prepared!

Today’s Box

  • Asian Pears
  • Gala Apples
  • Yellow Bartlett Pears
  • Beauregard Sweet Potatoes

Things I think are in the fridge

Some ideas to keep us going

  • If I had looked at the predicted contents, I would not have made aloo mater yesterday. I should’ve made Priya’s aloo gobi today. Instead, we’ll try this one and be sad about missing the roasted goodness. (And oil. I’m still sad about missing oil.)
  • Cabbage in Singapore Noodles?
  • Squash and tomato pasta sauce
  • Roasted squash + lettuce + apples + dates + craisins + chickpea croutons + curry yogurt dressing
  • Sliced beet + lettuce + tomatoes + chickpea croutons + curry yogurt dressing

Love you,

Sarah
