It was the last week of the NE Farmer’s Mkt, too, and the Chef Shack was there again! We got chili, hot cider, pulled pork and mini donuts with that divine cardamom sugar. (I saved the extra and put it in some coffee, later. Yum.) I really like the smaller markets–we had a neighborhood one, too, on Thu evenings–since the crowds are smaller and it’s easier to figure out what to get. Oh, and way less expensive than the Mill City (which I love, but…)

Even though my CSA season is over, today was last day of Mill City, so I stopped by and picked up both of these things before I even read your post! Kale is something that’s really grown on me (no pun intended) since I started CSA-ing. I bought some extra to freeze–it’s great in soup in the winter. Must try that Brussels sprout recipe.

This sounds like the one you mean: http://orangette.blogspot.com/2005/11/state-of-sprout.html so now I’m torn, this one, or the one in Super Natural Cooking. Argh! A nice problem to have.

There’s a Bon Appetit recipe for Brussel sprouts that wins people over, but you have to have a food processor to shred them. It then calls for sauteeing them in butter and finishing with poppy seeds and lemon juice. To die for, especially with chicken with 40 cloves of garlic.
