Last Night's Adventure

Yesterday I had the pleasure of not only hosting but cooking for a good friend visiting on her weekend off from academia.  I made stuffed acorn squash, since i had them and all the ingredients on hand from having made the stuffed peppers, so there is no real need for a new recipe post.  I used kidney beans as opposed to black beans and added the goodness of kale which I had purchased from the farmers' market that morning.

Funny story actually...I picked up a bunch of kale which looked small sitting next to all of the other loosely bound greens, so I decided to purchase a second bunch as well.  It doesn't all fit in the fridge back in the dorm.  Therefore, I resorted to putting a bunch of it on top of the microwave for snacking.  Note that the bunch you see on top is a result of having used quite a bit of it for dinner yesterday evening.  Once you unbind a bunch of kale...it really gets a lot bigger.  Just remember that!
