Menu Plan: August 3-16

The first batch of homemade salsa.  I got lazy, so I just threw everything in the blender instead of chopping it.  The texture was a bit different, but it tasted good!

We are starting to reap the fruits of our labor in the garden, and it's fun to be able to go out and pick some fresh veggies!  We tried our only remaining watermelon (we had 3, but the two smaller ones disappeared), and it was a little pale and immature tasting, but still good!  Here's the tentative plan for the first half of August...
