Figuring there was just going to be a little bit I said yes, even though I have my own garden, we don't grow a lot of the same stuff. We've "traded" before for veggies the other didn't grow.
This morning she brought them over. You can't see everything in the picture but there was a huge bag of swiss chard and beet greens. Another bag of sweet potato greens which I had never had before, a very large bag of yard long green beans, an eggplant, a tomato and about 8 pickling cucumbers. So, although I had a bunch of patterns and fabric to list in my shops, today was turned into a cooking day.
So here's the game plan, pesto with the greens because I love it and it freezes so well.

Oh, as a side note, I scrambled some of the sweet potato greens up with my eggs this morning and I am a new believer! They're really good. I usually use kale, spinach or collards but I like the sweet potato greens better!

All this time I thought that sweet potato greens were poisonous. Guess not...... I have a sweet potato in my kitchen growing leaves. I need to plant that baby, then I can try it too :)
