So, while Chip was gallivanting (okay so he was working..whatever) in Ecuador, our dear friend(and one of Chip's classmates-kind of a regular on the blog) Josh, moved in with us. Aside from the incredible company he provides, he is an excellent cook. I was really struggling to eat when he arrived and mentioned that if he wanted to take over dinners, that it would be greatly appreciated. He took over! We ate fresh, local, excellence all six weeks. Let's see, there were the quinoa veggie burger lettuce wraps, the chicken enchiladas, homemade pizza, soba soup, a constant supply of greens and basil, and so many fresh and stir fried vegetables it would be ridiculous to mention them all.
He has a way with herbs, flavors, and presentation (hence all the photos- I wanted to consume twice- once with my eyes, then with my mouth) that coaxed me into eating really well. Baby A and baby B are very happy about this...and so was I, of course. In addition to dinners the house was stocked with fresh local fruit as we foraged the neighborhood, picking at least 20 pounds of blueberries and 15 pounds of plums from various neighbor's trees. Gotta love Oregon's bounty. Thanks, Josh for joining the four of us for six weeks! We miss ya already.
