Haiku 6

Oh, bushel basket
of spinach and green garlic
dinner, comfort, love

Our spring veggie basket delivery has begun!
Each year we wait for the day when the basket, heavy with surprise, lands on our front stoop.
And this year, that day was today.

Romaine lettuce, kohlrabi, spinach, green garlic.
And the most amazing pea tendrils you’ve ever seen.

I made quiches of half the bounty before it could even hit the fridge. 
I love this time of year…

    Livejournal kind of hates me these days, so I apologize if this shows up three times —

    I am loving living vicariously into Spring with you, and the happy, hopeful energy of the veg box is indeed a wonderful thing!

    I remember you telling us last spring about these wonderful baskets of vegetables, and the thought of those baskets made me smile. What an awesome thing. Enjoy every bite!
