A quick update because things are so hectic — the past three menus I’ve come up with for lunch! Planning meals is really a lot of fun, especially because I have a whole farm’s worth of produce at my fingertips. I like having somewhat cohesive themes? Well, they’re all constructs so I’ll give them funny pictures. Maybe you’ll understand? If so, you’re cool in my book! These meals are generally mid-summer seasonal; I try to use as much fresh produce as possible, so there are lots of carroty dishes, peppers and tomatoes.
