hi friends! after a fun whirlwind trip through atascadero, santa cruz, vacaville, and maui (pics here), we’re back in seattle, missing our friends and family in california but happy to he home.
tomorrow is my sister’s bday!! and to wish her a very special day, i’m finally posting a recipe for crepes – something she asked me to do a looong time ago. i’ve been meaning to make them since she asked, but this quarter was a killer and i ran out of steam to try new recipes. but now i’m done! one-half of my masters program is complete! and i knew it was time to turn my attention to the important things in life, like crepes.
this month’s vegetarian times included a whole section on making a sourdough starter from scratch. it’s a 72-hour process in which every 12 hours, half of the starter gets discarded and replenished with more lukewarm water and flour.
ok, so i know i’ve been complaining a lot about chard and all the greens we’ve been getting in our csa box, but we have another csa box problem: pears.
i know you’ve all heard me talk about our csa box and how awesome it is – but really it IS wonderful! i love getting fresh veggies delivered to our house every other week, and it’s fun to try new produce.
