My day started by leaving at 6AM to take the kids to Niagara Falls.  My mom came with us and we met up with friends.  It was a great day.  My pick up for the CSA was smooth, but 2 1/2 hours later than normal.  My photos are a bit dark and I’m glad that I found a bit of time for this post tonight.

Here’s what we picked up today:

We love local melon season.  We will be cutting these melons up as soon as possible so we can enjoy them.  I also have a recipe from Jane Snow for cantaloupe gelatin that I am excited to try.  If it works out, I’ll share more about it soon.

Our green pepper, lettuce and tomatoes will go into salad.  The rest of the tomatoes will be snacks or frozen.  I found a recipe for tomato jelly that I’m going to try soon.  The onion and banana peppers will be chopped and frozen.  We’ll have the sweet corn with dinner tomorrow.

This is a pretty easy week.  It’s a good thing for us, since it’s a super busy week in our household.
