The strawberry butter is fantastic, rich and sweet on sliced bread.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/kitchen.wasteofbytes.com\/images\/summercsa1205.jpg\" width=\"320\" height=\"240\" border=\"0\" alt=\"summer CSA, week 5\"><\/p>\n<p>Week 5: more green beans, early corn, kale, peaches, potatoes, zucchini, plums, eggs, and bread (Great Harvest parmesan sourdough).<\/p>\n<p>For the Fourth, we kept it low-key; lit up the grill and blackened some zucchini and corn, along with some tasty steaks from Wagon Wheel Ranch.  I love the summertime; I can just send K outside with some raw ingredients, and he brings them back with char and beautiful grill marks.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/kitchen.wasteofbytes.com\/images\/summercsa1204-llamas.jpg\" width=\"320\" height=\"240\" border=\"0\" alt=\"sheared llamas at the CSA\"><\/p>\n<p>At the farm, the sheared llamas looked like poodles.

I love how they&#8217;re frosted with little drops of condensation, after being brought out into the heat.<\/p>\n<p>Things are supposed to get a little cooler after the weekend.
