I picked up my first box from the CSA today. It was filled with Bok choy, chard, kale, spinach, Boston lettuce, red and white radishes, carrots and even a bunch of mint for my Tea with Nana!

I have plans for things to make with these wonderful veggies this week, but it was lunch time, and I really, really, really wanted something right away, so I made up this amazingly fresh little salad. It made my heart feel good to sit on the deck in back eating it on this beautiful day. I’m thinking I might use some of the Bok choy tonight in Miso soup…
