Last night we had another Veggie Box Co-Op dinner. Spinnity, her husband, Seltsame, R and I get together every other week at either Spinnity’s house or my house and try to use up veggies from our CSA boxes from Two Small Farms. It was Spinnity’s idea, and R suggested we invite Seltsame to have more eaters than we would normally have, so we tend to use up more veggies, since it’s hard to use them all up in any given week with just 2 people. Whoever hosts makes the main dish, and the other couple brings a side dish or salad. Seltsame brings something to round out the meal. This week, I made beans and greens, stuffed hot peppers (stuffed with cheddar cheese, raisins, and almond slivers), corn bread, and asian pear pie with asian pears from my garden. Spinnity brought a delicious turnip side dish. And Seltsame brought some wine. I didn’t remember to photograph until dessert, but there were a few stuffed peppers left, and of course, the pie!

Asian Pear Pie (made from my aunt’s apple pie recipe)

Of course they insisted on taking a photo of me and my pie…
