No it’s not local, but I felt a touch of the scurvy coming on so I indulged in some citrus. Actually three kinds: navel oranges, tangelos, and (my favorite) blood oranges. I dressed them up with a sprinkle of cinnamon, a tiny dash of vanilla, and a banana. Such a brilliant flavor and it really did perk me up. I’m optimistic this cruel, icy, snowy stuff will melt and warm temps will return…in a couple of months.
On the truly more optimistic side…the one without the snarky sarcasm…I signed up for our CSA shares today, Spring Share, Standard Share, and Fruit Share…Spring share will start in April and it seems almost surreal to think about fresh greens. If you haven’t signed up for a CSA yet check out the Local Harvest site and find one near you. Then when you occasionally indulge in non-local treats you won’t feel too bad.
