There were all those leafy greens! The red and yellow tomatoes! The purple beets! I felt that the lushness and the rainbow of colors were worthy of a painting by a great artist.
Lacking an artist (with brush in hand) nearby, I wished for a great musician to quickly compose "Symphony to a Summer Squash,"
(throwing in any of the other vegetables as inspired to do so).
But no one showed up.
So I snapped photos and started working on my own new compositions.
"Look at this! It's a FIRST in my (very long) history of meal-making---fully HALF the food is purple!*"
......
*Last week's box of veggies included a head of purple cabbage.

just fabulous. What are those squiggly crustaceans or whatevers in the center of the salad (second photo)?
sk--Ha, they are walnut pieces! (One of my favorite salad add-ons).
Oh.
Not cashews? Pecans? Don't walnuts scrunch up your mouth?
sk--Hmm, well, now, there's a question.
I've never known walnuts to "scrunch up my mouth". However, now that I'm contemplating the delectable mouth-effect of cashews and pecans, I'll admit they're superior to walnuts!
Q.
Well then.
