long time, no post

lately, the only thing i hate more than school (and people) is dinner. specifically, trying to come up with something to eat for dinner. and r is feeling the same way. so between the two of us, it's a disaster.

what do you want to eat?

i don't know. what do you want?

i don't know, either. something.

yeah, something.

well, like what?

i don't know. i don't care.

well, i don't know, either.

it's awful. so i love this seasonal ingredient map from epicurious:

it's pretty straightforward - you just click on the month and your state and it gives you a list of what's fresh that month. obviously, this will vary from oh, say, san diego to san francisco, but the overview is still nice. but the great thing is that each food links to recipe ideas and info about how to shop for and prepare the produce.

i'm thinking i'll just keep the list up on our chalkboard so that we can try to center our meal ideas around what's in season right now. should help keep us eating fresh and, ideally, what's in season is also what's cheaper, so i can test that theory, too!
