Margie is down in New Orleans this week on a much-needed vacation, but never fear! Laura Louise and Mary are on the case, getting those lovely veggies and making sure they make it to your front door. This week we’re getting a nice mix of root veggies and greens, and our herb is thyme.
I don’t know about you guys, but I always have trouble figuring out what to do with those beets. Sure, you can juice them, but if juicing’s not your thing you probably struggle with those bright red veggies each week. Sunchokes are another one that stump me after I’ve gotten them for a few weeks in a row. Never fear! I’ve tracked down some recipes to help out with the beets and sunchokes in your basket that also use some of the other veggies we’re getting this week.

Thanks to all of the fine folks that made it out to the Vegetable Husband Third Anniversary Party at Home Grown! It was wonderful to share food, drinks, stories, and silliness with all of you! Local photographer Bonnie Heath was kind enough to set us up with a fun photo booth, and those photos are now online for you to enjoy. The picture above is from the booth, and it features our musical entertainment for the evening: Mule Skinner Trio. Thanks so much to the Trio and to Bonnie for adding such festive touches to the event!

Hi there, Vegetable Husband friends! I’m Becky Striepe, and you may know me as one of the VegHub drivers.
