bonus and tonight's plans

A last-minute cancellation of a dinner out left me wondering what to make. Last night, Mr. P stepped into the kitchen and made thoren (cocunut curry) out of non-local asparagus (not yet, but soon), mushrooms, and frozen edamame. There was also half a lemon in the fridge, so he juiced it and used it. This was a particularly good batch, both in taste and texture. The thoren page in the cookbook is getting a great workout and is full of our notes!

Tonight, we're having a fairly simple spaghetti sauce over whole wheat pasta. We have some tomato sauce left over from a project -- maybe the pizza for which I opened a can but used very little -- and some baby bok choy. Perhaps I'll add capers or olives and mushrooms.

Then tomorrow -- incoming! -- the second pickup from the farm. From there, we'll have to just make it up depending on what we get. I'm hoping the strawberries are ready (yum) and I'm sure there will be lots of greens.
