#because cholesterol

[alex51324]

This week's farm box has a theme, and it's "what on earth am I going to do with all these greens?"

I have spinach, kale, asparagus, zucchini, mint, radishes (with their greens), something called mizuna, and lettuce. (I still have lettuce left from last week.)

I'm planning to make creamed spinach, so that's one down.

My next idea is Some Kind of Pasta Thing with the zucchini, asparagus, and as much of the other greens as I can reasonably cram in, but I haven't quite figured out the details on that one.

And I'm still going to have kale, mizuna, and radish greens left after that. I'm thinking saute them, but I need some way to make it interesting.

And, of course, salad. Lettuce and radish salad, with one carrot I have left from last week, and IDK what else.

The mint, if I don't have any better ideas, I can just hang up it up to dry and then put it in teabags.

I have some very exciting cheeses this week, though!

Cheddar, colby, and the Red Cat is apparently the specialty of a local dairy.

My mom needs surgery so now we have to pay the blood requirement.

Since it would be a simple procedure, the hospital is asking only two blood donors. On Friday me and a couple of people will try to donate but we don't know if we will pass all the filters.

If you could turn into an animal (based on your personality) what animal would it be? (My friends have all agreed that I would turn into a flying squirrel. Never seen one but it seems accurate.)

…I admit, this question is mostly a variation on a discussion of daemons from the Golden Compass, but given how long it’s been since I read the book I don’t remember if a) this is a touch stone people will just get or b) if/how offensive the book might be. My friend just likes to think about what daemon various characters would have.

I only really know the golden compass through my partner, who is a huge fan.

I think i'd be a raven. Equal parts thoughtful and playful and incredibly clever (affectionate and derogatory simultaneously). I, too, would like to perch on top of a streetlight, chowing down on a whole big mac if my phisology would let me. Alas, it was not in the cards.
