Haiku Friday: The vegetables of summer we long for
This time of year, I start thinking about summer vegetables and farmers' markets. It's not that I'm a vegetarian or anything, but I still get in a mood for greens.
When I was 16, I spent some time harvesting peas in Washington State, driving a big combine like the ones pictured above. It was a fascinating job, and I ate a lot of peas.
Let's haiku about vegetables today. Here, I will go first:
The scent of cut stalks
And rich loamy soil beneath
Essence of summer.
Now it is your turn! Just use the 5/7/5 syllable recipe, and have some fun!

Stores just don't sell those tiny orange tomatoes. I get them at the end of the street at a Betty the Corn Lady's farm stand. Delicious to eat raw, or make a tart. Yummm
