What is your Farmer Lunch Today?

[parsley]

A Typical Parsley lunch:

Fresh einkorn bread topped with golden sesame
seeds, just out of the oven, sliced diagonally;
chorizzo, thin slices of roast pork tenderlon
roasted yesterday, merlot and berry cheese, white
cheddar, and spoons of the chokecherry jelly I
made a couple of days ago splathered on hot
bread for dessert. Coffee filtered through just-
ground dark roasted beans. That's it! Do you eat
your big meal at noon or evening? And believe
me, this is important information for targeting
buyers. Pars

Chili.

Big chili cook off at ARD between different sectors and divisions as a fund raiser in support of united way.

Hearty homemade chicken soup--good for me, not so good for the chicken.

charliep,

What kind of beans besides red kidney beans
were used? Had three calls for specailty beans
last week.

Ground beef still the staple, or more vegetarian?

Hot and spicey the norm or the exception?

farmaholic, I could eat soup for lunch 5 days a
week Do you raise farm chickens? Pars

[charliep]

Chicken and turkey chili. No veggie chili's (it is Alberta). All preparations from pulled beef (roast) to cubed steak to ground beef (all good). Still prefer a beef chili. Strangely enough, only kidney beans (like chickpeas in chili myself). Thank God no meetings this pm.

The topics list without the CWB is
woefully sparse

Paella pars.

[farmaholic]

Nope. no chickens here!

Food tastes are changing. And farmers must
adapt to grow what consumers like to eat. Menus
change. I am curious if the farm community's
menu has changed as drastically as the urban
eaters. So in actuality, thus topic is probably
more important to me than is the cwb issue.

John grew 58 varieties of beans in comparative
test plots in the early nineties, recorded the
planting , seed weight, latin variety and maturity
times, weighed the production and extrapolated
the yields, patiently as all engineers seem to
enjoy It was very interesting. I cooked each
variety. And we focused on the really promising
varieties. So my bean interest is a continuation.
Sorry if it's boring to you. Pars.

Parsley, what you up to? i have seen your beans
- never saw anything grow so healthy, just
loaded. You two have usedyour heads to design
and innovate like not many I have seen. In our
lives we stumble on some memorable people.
