Breakfast: oatmeal. I really need rasiins - we are really low.
Lunch: Jason made me a beet wrap with two apples. The girls had carrots, apples, prines and chicken salad sandwiches. Cress didn't finish becuase she didn't like the poppy seed bread - frozen church bread. Also, she and Dai took cherry tomaortes becuase I needed to use them up - but maybe they had already gone - Cress said they tasted funny and Dai didn't finish hers, either.
Dinner: Made a white bean vegetable soup. I used a recipe (mostly.) It called for marinara sauce and I didn't have that so I used two cans of Italian seasoned tomatoes - admittedly marinara would have been better. I used a CSA leek rather than the onion for which the recipe called. I used carrots, CSA spinach and CSA chard, too. It also had garlic, oregano, salt, pepper and broth. Fairly basic. Not great - not horrid - though Cress and Dai didn't eat much of it. That means I should probably buy dessert tomorrow as an enticement. We also had a salad made by Dai with the last head of romaine (yes it was a small salad,) a grated carrot, grape tomatoes and mushrooms. I have only one beet and carrots and apples left for produce. Tomorrow is CSA day and I feel pleased to have used most of it. I did end up tossing the mustard greens. We toasted the rest of Phyllis's church bread (it had not been frozen and had a couple spots that we had to remove) and much of the frozen church bread from past weeks. It was less than fresh tasting - but c'est la vie, I guess.
