Now is the Summer of our CSA

Social Summer is ending.  Meteorological Summer endures for a few more weeks.

Stewardship Farms has been our CSA this year.  For Labor Day weekend (which is and must be about Labor), I'm posting some photos of recent food from our farm share.

Ok, it's true that the depth of field on some of these shots is pretty lousy.  And yes, it's further true that I could not keep myself from taking a bite of the fish in the last image before snapping a photo.  My guess is that you would have been in the same boat, if you had been there.

No Way Out

Not that I'm looking for one.  Just taking it slow.

Some nights you go out to a show, or another, or another, or maybe you catch J.D. McPherson at Music Hall of Williamsburg after a birthday dinner for a friend.  

Those are usually pretty good nights.

Went to bed after that show feeling great - McPherson & Co. were amazing - but I woke up with a sore throat and no energy and I've been trying to rally back ever since.

So... some nights you just stay in trying to shake a cold, reading, listening to Chocolate Watch Band, watching a documentary about Geraldine Ferraro, and trying to figure out what to order in for dinner.  

And sometimes you might feel like you do need a way out, when things are so unbelievably backward in Wisconsin and Alabama that it gets confusing which state is which.  But you stay with it, you celebrate Women's History Month with Beth Henley and Wendy Wasserstein and Geraldine Ferraro, and you know the only way out is through.
