Food!

I know I haven't posted for a while, but today, I simply have to post about food. Yesterday, I picked up our very first share of the season from Allison Hill's own CSA (community-supported agriculture), the Joshua Farm. Kirsten at the farm works endlessly with the students of the Joshua Group to produce incredible food for members- yesterday we picked up strawberries, mint, bok choi, lettuce, sugar snap peas, green onions, and flowers for a bouquet. There's nothing better than eating fresh food produced organically that we walked to pick up from its growing place. I look forward to a whole summer of delicious veggies and fruit! Speaking of food... I have a confession about one of my favorite sounds of the neighborhood that I've been hearing more and more often. The ice cream truck. Who actually has ice cream trucks anymore? And yet, we do, and I feel nostalgic and hungry for ice cream every time I hear the tinkling music playing down the street. On a hot, sweaty day like the ones coming up, there's no better sound.
