Day in the Life of an Idiot

I ran around a LOT today. I started out knowing that I needed gas (I should have stored extra in plastic bags in the metal shed! What was I thinking?) I decided to be a multi-tasker and so I took along a bunch of stuff that Shawn and weeded out from the basement that could go to a charity shop. Then, Mason needed to go to Washington YET AGAIN. This time, he needed to go back to the garden club (it's his senior honor's project) to plant today.  I decided, ONCE AGAIN, that it would be a great idea to multi-task, so after dropping him off, I headed out to the CSA in Swede Hollow. 

As you can see we're starting to actually get some more interesting stuff. It was a lot of repeat from last week, but with the very fun addition of a bundle of mint as well as a small collection of baby daikon (white radishes.) I'm very thrilled that there are more green onions/scallions, because Shawn and I had a blast making scallion pancakes, like the ones you get in Chinese restaurants as an appetizer, last Friday. I think we may have to do it again for lunch tomorrow, actually.

Today is officially "What are you reading, Wednesday?" But, everything I read is trash. In fact, I am almost embarrassed to say that just before heading off to the CSA, I finished reading Cestus: The Legend of Boxing in the Dark Ages, a manga by Shizuya Wazarai.  Which I read the volume they had on-line because I got sucked into watching an episode of the anime. 

How about you? Reading anything good? Harvesting anything fun? Anybody else got rhubarb? What are you planning to do with yours?
