Hi all — sorry for the delay in the roundup and the weekly recipe. Life… busy… well, I’m sure you know how it is.
Both will be up before the end of the night! I may check out all the blogs and post the week 5 (June 22-28 ) roundup too, maybe tomorrow, if most everyone has written something. I can always edit and add to the roundups if needed. My timing is all wonky.
ANYway… on to the week 4 roundup! Strawberries are mentioned once or twice…
Pat at Cooking From the Market gets into late spring with sugar-snap peas and baby turnips.
Eugenia at Culinaria Eugenius had a lot for us in week 4. First, some info about meadowfoam honey. Then, strawberry goodness. Finally, some inspiration for All. Those. GREENS. Potstickers!
Over at Greenscraps, there were a few homegrown strawberries! (Very pretty. Strawberries in sunlight look like precious gems.)
Jen at Jen’s Page (go click now for cute baby photos) made lots and lots of strawberry jam.
The Lucky Ruggieros were out of town, but they get points for keepin’ it local in Boston with lobster from Stop-n-Shop. Heh.
I didn’t do much in week 4 — we’re packing so the kitchen is in a big state of disarray. But we did have one dinner that included bratwurst from Wood Family Farm.
Good week, people!
Stumble It!

I don’t know if I’ll get around to blogging about my current week of local eating (June 30-July 4); I was going to earlier this week but then got busy and now I have holiday things planned all weekend. But I made a nice Pasta Primavera (adapted from one at http://www.pioneerwomancooks.com) with greens, broccoli and snow peas (as well as other vegetables I had on hand) from Heavenly Harvest. I also got some Turpen Farms eggs from them; we eat eggs almost every morning and Beth is always excited when we have brown eggs (local) instead of white (grocery store). Not sure why she finds the color difference so exciting, but she does.
