At our house, it’s officially spring when the CSA basket shows up on our stoop
every Wednesday morning, chock full of veggie goodness.
We all dive in, hoping for our favorites.
Salad greens? Check.
Beets? Later in the season.
Tomatoes? Coming!
Radishes? Help yourself!
This year, thanks to our current situation, the bounty looks particularly and auspiciously potent, in a cancer-fighting kind of way. Everything in there is fleshy and just-picked and full of what a body needs to beat back the bad and flourish.
And so we will eat it all.
We will savor and devour it.
It is something we can do…

spinach, green garlic

we are satisfied
Liz,
I am holding you and your family in my heart and pray for good news for you soon.
I love that you are working your way through this with your haiku.
*hugs*
This one took my breath away.

Yes. I miss my CSA box badly, this time of year. I think I’m going to talk D. into getting one again… because fighting back the bad through what we eat is such a positive action. Yes.
Yum.
