Plump and Purple

I look for fruit to be nice and plump and full of color but unfortunately my ankle is also a nice plump and purple!  For those of you that saw me on that first delivery Wednesday evening, you know! Yes, I fell down my stairs and injured my ankle loading the baskets in the car the very first week of deliveries.  Thursday I spent the day at Grady hospital only to find out the ankle is broken and I will be in a cast for the next 6-8 weeks.

The good news is I managed to get your deliveries out that evening while they were fresh-picked thanks to my helpers, Joe, Shane and my dear old dad.  The bad news is I did not get the recipes uploaded for you.  I have added a recipe and a few tips to the website today,  Let me know if these help you.  This next Wednesday will go out as planned.  I have someone that as offered to help the temporarily handicapped vegetable husband get her veggies out!  Yeah!

Last thought, the eggplant is so good right now.  Many of you have told me about how you used the basil, the eggplant and the okra.  Please keep sharing any ideas or concerns you have.  I am so happy to hear about other people getting as excited about fresh food as I get!!
