16. eat entirely local for a week.

You'll notice that many of the items on my 33 things list have to do with food. I love food. Also, I had just read this great book. I knew that I would wait til summer to attempt my own week of local deliciousness, even though I have a weird kid who goes with me to the farm each week to pick up milk and routinely asks me whether the grapes at the market are from Maxico, I'm not normally obsessive about things being local.

So celebrate, locavore style, I'll share a week's worth of seasonal dinners with you and skip recapping our awesome neighborhood egg breakfasts and leftover lunches. Since today's meal* photographs like a bowl full of greenish glue, I'll show you Saturday's farmer's market haul:

*Because I add to kale to everything, I added a ton of kale to this recipe. I also added extra onions, 3 potatoes and some very local chard and spinach that needed to be used up. To compensate for the additional veggies I added extra broth and a bit of water. It made for some tasty, tasty green glue.
