Care for this weeks ingredients:

Squash and Red Cabbage: Store in fridge- best if squash is used within 3 days, will last 5-7 in crisper. Cabbage will last 2-3 weeks or longer in the crisper

Tomatoes: DO NOT REFRIGERATE. If you would like them riper, simply leave them on a windowsill, otherwise leave them on your kitchen counter. Will last up to a week, depending on ripeness.

Swisschard: Wash or at least rinse upon returning home. Wrap in dish towel and store in the fridge. Best if used with in 3 days.

Onions: The candy onions are called this for just the reason you think- because they are sweet. Store in crisper, they have not quite grown a paper wrapper yet to be kept in storage.

Corn: Store in fridge- use as soon as possible for optimum freshness. Picked corn starts loosing it's sugar content almost immediately.
