Oops, I'm already not keeping up with this!

Contents of our box last week:

4 ears of CORN!
pint of cherry tomatoes
4 large, light green zucchini
bag of BLUE potatoes
swiss chard
parsley
apricots
cherries
strawberries
onions

A few things we have done with the contents:

Steamed the corn and ate it pronto.
Grilled the zucchini and last week's yukon gold potatoes
Sauteed the swiss chard with the onion (wow are they sweet!!)
Parsley has had many uses!

The thing about summer produce is that you don't really need to really 'do' anything with it or to it. I'm going to have to start getting creative with the zucchini, though. Seeing Ratatouille over the weekend reminded me what a great dish that is in the summer.
