The list of things in my life that happen according to schedule is a pretty short one. Haircuts? Maybe you get them every 6-8 weeks, but I haven't been to a barber - much less a hairdresser - in more than 10 years. I just shave my head when the spirit moves me (see my picture for evidence). Housework? I wish - in my house, we're more likely to clean like crazy people just before guests come over (or when there's something sticky on the floor) than we are to pick a weekly time.

Here's a list of what was in this week's Harmony Valley farmshare box. The box was literally overflowing, and we were excited to see foods we'd never even heard of, like teggia beans and Orange Ukraines (we were excited for the return of radishes, too). And this is - already, finally - the week we didn't throw away our edamame beans. So delicious and easy, as it turns out - and the kids love 'em too.

Please send me your recipes! Until then, here's what Harmony Valley had to say about the food we've got and how to prepare it (the picture is theirs too):
