FARRO

I didn't really know what farro was when I bought it from a stand at the farmer's market the other day. But I looked around on the internet and found a great recipe for this salad:

cooked farro-it's a grain, tomatoes, scallions, basil, arugula, radishes, it asked for cucumbers (I got them but forgot to put them in) and I added dried cranberries, because it seemed appropriate.

I also made chicken (that I had gotten during lunch at Eataly) with lemon and rosemary. I poured the juice over some kale to make it taste good.

I made dinner for Mindy and her terrific kids: Eli and Lucy. It's always nerve racking cooking for kids because they can't hide it if they don't like it. I don't think they liked the farro.
