A small box, part fruit.
  • an eggplant
  • two stalks of broccoli
  • a small acorn squash
  • eight ounces of white mushrooms
  • a head of garlic
  • four largish yellow onions
  • five red-skinned potatoes
  • two sweet potatoes
  • a head of romaine lettuce
  • two lemons
  • two oranges

Also a dozen eggs. The little list included tangerines, but I got none of those. Nor did I get a newsletter, again. I think it's time to contact them.

I got home late, and found that the romaine had started to freeze. Oops. The mushrooms were pretty cold, too. Time for an improv meal, a not-a-stir-fry. I sauteed onions, added the mushrooms (chopped up), and the eggplant (diced). I marinated some seitan with Szechuan spicy sauce (also some corn starch). I sliced up some baby carrots and put them in to get friendly as well. I added soy sauce when it seemed like the veggies were sticking. Once the eggplant was cooked, I added the seitan. At the very end, right before I turned the heat off, I added most of the head of romaine, roughly chopped, which cooked a little in the residual heat, but still left the stalks crunchy. I know, weird, but it used the lettuce I otherwise would've tossed (and I discovered some untouched bits in the middle, so there's some left for salad another night).

Verdict: decent, but not spicy enough.

Arrgh. I need onions/garlic, and we didn't get any. Instead, we got corn.(?!)

Corn?! How bizarre.

I'd happily send some garlic your way, if we can figure out a time/place for allium transfer.
