Warmer still!

The CSA farm box arrived today with a bounty of goodness. This week, it contained carrots, cabbage, Lacinato kale, lettuce, peas, broccoli, cilantro, tomatoes, plums, nectarines, peaches, oranges, blueberries, and apples. Yum!
The sun made a return appearance today. That's two in a row, wahoo! The prerequisite for dinner tonight was it can't heat up the kitchen by even 1 degree. We hit 90 degrees today. Our house is sitting at a toasty 83.
David hit the deck and lit up the BBQ. I made with the veggies. Here's what we ended up having: Grilled king salmon (wild caught off Pacific coast) with chiptotle marionberry sauce (farmer's market), grilled asparagus (farmer's market) with olive oil, salt and pepper, and a salad of raspberries, lettuce, chives (all from our back garden), and seasoned Bulgar wheat, with a walnut vinaigrette. For dessert? Pomegranate popsicles. If you've never tried grilled asparagus, you haven't lived! Delish!!!
