Ground lamb
Roy and I did a trade this week. Two of the items in our share were things we didn't want - ground pork and coffee. We got two frozen packages of ground lamb their place.
Raspberries - Roy thought the raspberries were past their peak - not nearly as good as some of the other berries we've gotten recently
Honey
Cherry Tomatoes
I loved having the fresh basil on hand. I even bought pine nuts at the market and made pesto sauce. We used it on bread, with pasta, and as a hamburger topping. I froze some so we'd be able to use it up after our next trip.
This was another success. I used this recipe for pasta primavera that turned out well. I used a bunch of vegetables on hand: cauliflower, cherry tomatoes, squash, carrots, basil and mixed it in with the whole wheat pasta we got that week.
It was even good cold as a side dish the next day. I liked it so much, in fact, that I made it again for Roy's family reunion picnic that weekend. I was able to buy the same pasta at Whole Foods. This is the first time I brought a home-cooked dish to this picnic, usually I get something from the deli at Straub's. I was really happy with it.
