Sorry I haven't posted in a while. Today, I'm going to show some meals from the past couple of days.

Birthday Breakfast:
Sunday, June 24

For my mom's birthday, we made a 100 mile breakfast. The meal included fresh strawberries from Wilson Farms (Lexington MA), fresh eggs also from Wilson Farms (scrambled and fried in the bacon grease), local bacon from Codman Community Farm (Lincoln MA). Local seltzer made from our own seltzer machine. It was really really good, and we all felt very proud of our 100 mile feast.

(100 mile) Budget:

Tuesday, June 26

Now that we've moved to our summer house in Cape Cod, MA, we have to find new sources of local food, because driving to Lincoln to get meat is just impractical. We discovered How on Earth (Mattapoisett, MA) which carries a variety of local products (milk, cheeses, vegetables, fruits, etc.). However, we really felt the heat when we spent $80 on some milk, cheeses, butter, a pound of ground turkey, a breakfast sausage patty and a couple of chicken breasts. Two small bags. It was a bit disheartening.

100 mile Lunch:

Thursday, June 28

Our lunch was some bread (not local) with local goat cheese (Vermont Creamery) and sauteed greens from Bay End Farm (Buzzards Bay Ma). The goat cheese was a bit more crumbly than the average consistency, but it was really good.
