We went to a chicken harvest party on this past Sunday. There was a nice line setup to take the chicken, kill it, drain it of a bit of blood, clean off the feathers, eviscerate it and final clean it. Many of the chef people and people around them and around the Grade A Gardens. I killed one chicken and eviscerated two (cleaned the guts out). Brett lead the brigade of helpers, where they made: Chicken Tacos, Chicken Heart Tacos, Soup, and blood sausage. This was a wonderful experience. The day couldn't have been more beautiful. Weather was awesome, when the sun went down, we had a great view of the lights of downtown Des Moines. I love living here.

Bangers & Roasted Tomatoes (I think these have tomatoes in them)

I may have exploded one or two, but this turned out pretty well. Good stuffs. I used some of my last Grade A Gardens potatoes and some Wabi Sabi Farm, both quite good.

Rabbit Bratwurst

so these were nice, but they seem to be missing the kind of core spice of what a bratwurst should be. Maybe the coriander? Anyways they were still pretty good.

Pork Burgers

little bit of salt, little bit of pepper. Good stuffs.

Chicken Noodle Soup with Bok Choy (later in the week when it gets cold again)

Delayed!

Tuna Melts

Turned into tuna salad with cheese (was in a rush). Good things.
