snap peas, turnips, chard kale, radishes, fava beans garlic scapes, bok choy Last week’s loot (I’m so behind) from Isabelle Farm CSA.

Last week’s) loot was pretty standard; green beans, squash, kale, green onions, corn, broccoli, lettuce, cabbage. And this thing . . . It’s a SPUTNIK! No, actually, it’s a kohlrabi.
