csa week seven.

so this week was actually my first time picking up the box in person.  i work on sundays so one of the roomies has been doing it.  but this week everyone had different brunches to go to (weird?), so it was my turn to actually do it!  i got to pick out the tomatoes and the apples i wanted too!

4 apples (vista bella)
4 tomatoes
lettuce
a HUGE beautiful bunch of green swiss chard
arugula
an eggplant
6 potatoes
beets
4 ears of corn
2 mystery items

okay mystery items...i just searched the internet for a vegetable identification key.  not one.  SERIOUSLY?  you'd think that would exist by now.  someone please make that.  i'm imagining something like:  month harvested? july,  fruit or leaves/stem? fruit,  color? green,  texture? smooth, etc, etc.....until you tell me what my vegetable is.  i'm posting a photo of them....please tell me what you think they are!  (that is the eggplant there with em).

here are my 3 guesses though none seem perfect:
-green goddess eggplant
-cousa squash
-regular ole cucumbers (i have a feeling its this and i am just a total dweeb)
-yeah i'm leaning towards cucumbers that are just more smooth, less striped, and plumper than i'm used to...??


anyways, here is a photo of the swiss chard.  can't wait to eat that!

UPDATE:  the mystery vegetables did turn out to be cucumbers.  i'm feeling a bit sheepish for getting all worked up.  oh and by the way, they were crisp and delicious.
