I’ve never even SEEN Kohlrabi — what does it taste like? It looks like a radish/jicama from outer space I LOVE trying new vegetables, and will have to seek this one out…

And while summer is fading and so will the amazing (although sweltering, at times!) weather, this means that we will have more winter squash at our disposal, and cheaper! Plus…one of my favorite fruits is coming into season: PERSIMMONS! Hopefully I’ll be able to stick to one or two at a time :-/

Which bay area farmer’s market do you like best? I’ve only been to the Mountain View one, and it is SO EXPENSIVE! I feel like I’m getting ripped off. Are the other ones any better?

Hi Maggie!! I’ve definitely seen those kohlrabi’s around, but i had no idea you could just slice and eat!! that’s pretty awesome!!

I’ve been to the Japantown in San Fran, but i wish it were bigger!!! At least one exists though, i won’t complain. Chicago has NONE, so…better look on the bright side huh?

I’m happy the kabocha is back in your life. Hummus, sprouted grain bread, tempeh and tofu are back in mine. My stomach is still in tact, as is my happiness

I wish we had a Japan town over here! We do have a large Japanese market though–Uwajimaya. The only __-town we have here is China town, which I don’t go to very often. The ramen looks delicious (haven’t had a bowl in forever!).

you eat the most interesting and unique foods!
I would have never met Kabocha if it weren’t for you!

we don’t have a japan town near us (I don’t think) sushi restaurants are as close as we get

i’m off for some love of words!
