It’s at least 90 degrees here every day. However, for some reason I thought it was a great idea to make soup. Mark agreed. We love soup. I had some chard from my CSA box, and I wanted to do something different with it (I feel like I’ve been saying that a lot. I suppose … Keep reading

We have zucchini coming out of our ears these days. Our CSA box has included zucchini for some time now.

Italian Lasagna
This gallery contains 5 photos.
Did you know that the lasagna that you (well, I am assuming here) and I grew up eating was an American-ized version of the Italian version? I had no clue!

This Week’s Lunch
