So I'm exhausted! I was meant to go to a movie tonight with the girls, but what a weekend. 13 hours of co-op planning can really drain your energy. But I've come away with a positive perspective on the co-op and a definite role on the leadership team. It means bi-monthly meetings but again, I feel this is something that I'm called to do.
Clearly I didn't get much cooking done this weekend. Went to the market on Saturday morning before the meeting started and bought tomatoes (they're growing them hydrophonically in a greenhouse and they're some of the best I've ever tasted) along with strawberries, tamales and eggs, as per usual. Made another quiche tonight but am looking for other ways to use my spinach. Got a new perspective on vegan cooking this weekend. I've never been one for vegan ways since I love my eggs and cheese too much, but one of the co-op members made some very tasty lunches. Particularly a carrot salad with canola oil, lemon, and cinnamon. Yum!
Once again my week is piling up, with something Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday night now, along with the gym at the least tomorrow. Hopefully Wednesday too. Got info on a free yoga class in Mid-City on Tuesdays that I'd like to try but not this week. The garden is surviving, yay, and there's another garden up the block I'm going to help with. I'm realizing more and more that this really is home, and that I'm finally finding a place to put down roots--literally!
What a plan to set in motion
Wanna try to make this all our own
To take this place and make this home

Lucky! Planting a garden already!
BTW, if you need another idea how to use your spinach here's two: thrown into your spaghetti sauce, or a salad with avocado, oranges,almonds, dried cranberries with poppyseed dressing. Yum!
I admire your concern, and your actually doing something about it by helping form the Co-op. May God be with you in your venture.
