Today we drove up to Layton for our CSA's member farm day, a chance to see what's going on, help plant, and pull up some vegetables that wintered over, in this case, Jerusalem artichokes or sun chokes- which look like ginger root, but starchy like a potato. Only 3 couples showed up, but we still had fun. I think Esme the most, judging by how dirty she got. The kids were tough, loved the dirt and bugs, ate raw sun chokes and asparagus when they got hungry.
I had good reason to get out the camera this time because I help the main
blogger for the CSA in trade for a free small share. Pretty good set up. My first "job" since Eli was born. Brian was gone most of the time, so I couldn't get too creative with the kids tugging on me or in my arms.

Have I mentioned Esme's a daddy's girl?
It feels strange not being the preferred parent. |
