• Horseradish raw beet salad (we at this at Gaslight this weekend)
• Sesame bok choy (from the market as well- so were the beets)
• Salad (from the market)
• Wheatberry salad
• Strawberry rhubarb cobbler with homemade vanilla ice cream (strawberries from my strawberry picking field trip this weekend; rhubarb from his grandma's neighbor)
