That big ol' mess of greens is sitting on our pretty, suburban lawn. Yay for grass. Yeah, I know, so not environmental to have a miniature golf course surrounding our house. But it is fantastic to have the girls run around in bare feet and simply roll around in the lushness of fresh sod. And it isn't dirt. Thank frikken' gawd, it isn't dirt.

Tonight was another hot one on the string of summer we're finally getting. After grilled pork tenderloin, ice cream cones, and kite flying at friends', we headed out to pick up our veggies from the farmer. That's how The Monster now refers to our weekly CSA pick-up.

This week was was definitely brought to us by the colour green. Mesclun, head lettuce, swiss chard, stir fry greens (mustard, radish, and turnip greens), something that looks like the skinnier sister of baby bok choy , and something new to me, mallow. I see some salads, stir fries, and perhaps some tabbouleh in our future.

By the end of this week we are going to be superheroes!
