Success! The next three days are only Farmer's Market and Garden. What's on the menu? For lunch today, Natalia and I made homemade chickpea hummus suprise with scallions from our garden. Thanks, Uncle David and Aunt Mary, for the delivery of grains. A check for $4.50 is in the mail for you addressed to Jack McGrail. The additional onions and tomoto come from the Michigan farm and its greenhouses in New Buffalo. We added some parsley, mustard greens, and cilantro from our garden and mixed it in the processor for delicious goodnes. The fruit of choice was the remaining tomato and about a cup of fresh rhubarb from the gardens of nearby neighbors- somewhere in a neighboring IL county. I have to hit up our direct neighbor, Cindy for a dose of her rhubarb because her bush of fruity delight is gigantic!
Good job us! Lunch on the garden. Dinner is also all planned out and ready to go. But why bore you with the details.
This summer's challenge is to remove industrialized foods from my plate. I turn to our garden. I will eat only from the garden and meals can only be supplemented by local farmers' markets. Donations from family and friends' gardens accepted. I protest the modification of my food and bring it back to it's original form- real. It's gonna be a challenge. Let's see where it takes me.
