We've Got Beans! and I'm Too Sexy to Garden!

Not bad for our first real season at the Militant Community Garden.
Each week we have a new little harvest! It's very exciting.

I have no annoying emails to share with you this week from the nitwits at the Militant Community Garden, it's been very quiet, except for Sunday morning's incident.

A woman with a big floppy hat came up to me and said that "I was too sexy to be gardening" and "could I dress differently so her husband wouldn't gawk". I stood there in amazement, then realized I think she was being cute. Still not sure.

Next week I am showing up in a bikini.

Back to the harvest:



This week we harvested bush beans!

I have enough beans to harvest for the next few weeks, so you will be seeing some green bean recipes here.

Here's how I prepared the beans:



I boiled the beans for 5 minutes and sauteed them with some of the gorgeous homemade pancetta from Ben at Mossuto's Market.



Tossed them with a tablespoon of butter to finish them and salt and pepper.



Served with some garlic bread and fresh mozzarella.



Happy days of summer.



Proper Attire Required.
