My fridge after a rainy Sunday

fridgeapr15.jpg

I ran to Wilson Farms early yesterday morning before the heavy downpour began, then came home and cleaned out the fridge, a satisfying project.

Then I put everything away, made lunches for the week (yogurt in little pots on the top left shelf, along with bags and containers of fruit, plus five blue-topped salads on the top right shelf).

The weekly pot of soup, cauliflower and butternut squash, is in the mustard-colored Le Creuset on the bottom shelf, with the overflow in the tall white container next to it. On top, in the yellow bowl, is salad for this evening. I try to make two every other day.

To the left is a stack of interesting eggs: quail eggs on top, which I thought I'd try, Araucana blue and other colored eggs from Codman Farm, and some from a photo shoot marked "baking only."

Various containers on the bottom right hold leftover roast tomatoes, a dish of asparagus, some deviled eggs with tuna (a new favorite, made with tuna in olive oil from Italy), and roast chicken on baby Yukon Gold potatoes with spring onions.

I make a pot of soup every week until the comforter comes off the bed -- usually around Memorial Day. Last night, the golden cups were especially welcome. So was the comforter.
