spinach

What do you do with two pounds of mature spinach leaves the day before your next CSA box is due to arrive? Blanch, cook in butter and stock, then add a lot of cheese (and more butter):

(Dave left me for several days of grading AP CS exams, so I feel free to spend hours preparing lactose-intensive meals.)

berries

The strawberries are coming in like crazy now. Several are just rotting on the ground before I can find time to pick them. Tonight's harvest went well with white wine while catching up on the first installment of the Colbert Report in Baghdad (to witness Stephen's head shaving), followed by watching the Pens win game 6 of the Stanley Cup Final (a far too exciting 3rd period).
