Farm Box!

Ok, so this is my first time doing a CSA and we're splitting it with another couple so that we do not have kale for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. Our farm of choice is Roxbury. Because of the crazy warmth we had here in April, we got a bonus week of lettuce, radishes, turnips, broccoli rabe, tatsoi, cilantro, kale and kohlrabi. It's all beautiful, and plenty for the 4 of us. I snapped a couple quick pictures (iPhone camera, sorry!) while I was rinsing and spinning out the greens. 

My salad spinner is vintage!  :)

So, I'm unfamiliar with kohlrabi . . . if you have a wonderful recipe or technique for preparing it, 

please let me know! Also, they put in our newsletter to please spread the word, so here goes: 

We still have shares available in the Capital District at the Schenectady, Glenville, 

South Main, and Delmar sites and also at the Farm.

a guest model + new equipment

So, I got a new camera! It's pretty great, and although I'm still learning, I wanted to share some of my first pictures with you! I'm very lucky that my friend and fellow vintage-enthusiast, Kater, was willing to be my guest model for this shoot. She looks amazing in everything, and for this shoot, we did mostly hats and jewelry so that I could work on my macro and portrait shots.

 Grabbed a little extra sunshine for this black hat since the satin was only a few 

shades darker than her brown locks.

(I've been nagging her to give us an eyeliner tutorial.)

All of these items will be in the shop shortly! Thanks to the lovely Kaitlin of AllThisHappiness for being the prettiest model around! She's wearing a vintage dress from her personal collection, her nail polish is June (a true coral) from Chanel, and her lips are Niagara by Nars. Stunning!
