I think I’m back in my kale salad era 🥗

There was a long break there after leaving hawaii, nothing compared to the kale from BUT I finally found the sweetest, most tender greens here on Wadmalaw. Thank you for the FRESHEST selection.

Whipped up this kale Caesar salad after getting home from teaching an evening class. Made a simple dressing by whisking together tahini, lemon juice, garlic & sea salt and threw some crunchy chickpeas on it that I cooked in my air fryer. It was exactly wanted my body wanted, also a couple slices of the frozen pizza hubby prepared 😜

It’s all about balance. 💚

This waxing into a full moon energy has had me up early the last several mornings and I ain’t complaining! 🌅

And today marks the last full moon of the year! A perfect time to cleanse and leave the old behind in 2024 and set intentions for the new year. 🌝

Getting my circadian rhythm in sync with the sun is one of my intentions, so thanks for the assist full moon 🙏🏼

There are few things that get me more excited than cooking with fresh veggies that were picked that day! 🤓

First meal made with first Fall CSA pickup. These peppers were so dang flavorful that I didn’t have to do much with the pasta.

Hubby is already asking about next weeks pickup 😍

So excited I remembered to join Fall CSA. I missed joining the Summer one and wasn’t about to do that again!

For those of you wondering what a CSA is, it’s basically a portioned out box of seasonal fruits & veggies that you pick up weekly.

In my opinion it’s the healthiest way to eat; it’s seasonal, organic, local and sustainably grown. Plus it’s affordable and supports your farmers. Double win!
