i love spring.
i am currently eating a delicious salad - one of my new favorite things:
greens, fresh steamed and cooled asparagus, hard boiled egg, avocado, tossed with olive oil, balsamic, meyer lemon juice and parmesan cheese. so. good.
and fresh beginning of season long stemmed uber-good organic local strawberries.
heaven.
later this week: fava bean and leek soup, stir fry of kale, bok choy and carrots and something with turnips! not to mention, more salad with asparagus and avocado. ; )
i share a c.s.a. box with a friend and its making me try new things... and this morning i went to my beloved berkeley farmers market and had the wonderful pretzel croissant and blue bottle coffee... i miss living in berkeley. and i will miss living in california next year, though i hear corvallis does have a good farmers market from april til thanksgiving!
this journal is random and my real life update (besides the farmers market love) is that i'm moving to corvallis oregon for an internship at first presbyterian church... i'll be there the academic year and then back to berkeley (hopefully) for one more year of gtu/sfts academics.
yay for spring and new stuff to look forward to and ALMOST being done with my 3rd year of school... now i just have to make myself go to the library and write two papers on this gorgeous california may day when i'd rather be hiking and not be inside...
