Walleye

So we have been trying to figure out how to make more local or
unprocessed versions of things we like. Last weekend we went on a
short drive to visit Cedar Summit farm, where we buy our milk. It was
hilarious: we drove up and parked next to the fence and saw all sorts
and colors of cows, from brown jersey to Holsteins. The cows took
little notice of us, though one stood up and yawned at me. We went
into the small store there and got a lot of milk in glass bottles,
some honey produced by one of their neighbors, some apricot preserves,
pastureland butter, eggs, and pastureland raw milk cheddar. Matt and
I tried the cheddar tonight and agreed it was the best cheddar we had
tried.

We picked up an ice cream maker and yogurt maker. Yummy dairy.

We had a lot of CSA veggies to eat up so we have been roasting a lot
of parsnips. Tonight I made a soup of beef broth, pureed bok choi and
nettles, and curly parsley. We had that with pan fried walleye and
sauteed greens from our box. Matt is currently trying out the ice
cream maker and I'm sure I'll appreciate and enjoy his efforts.
Tomorrow we are going to Surly's brewery to pick up some beer for
Casey and Gina. Bonnie could have some too, I suppose.
