Bountiful Basket


I finally remembered to get online at the right time on Monday night to order a Bountiful Basket. Since this was my first time participating in this popular food co-op, I decided to count up what I got. (I didn't know I was supposed to bring a box to take the stuff home in, oops, but I won't be a first-timer next time!) Broccoli (2 bunches), cantaloupe, 3 onions, a bunch of kale, 5 tomatoes, 7 ears of corn, 12 peppers, 2 zucchini, 2 plantains, 3 mangoes, 15 plums, 10 peaches, and a pint of blueberries. All of the fruits and veggies are super huge and wonderful looking. It all goes along very well with our plan of eating more healthfully, we've been doing pretty well for 2 weeks now, Kerry and I (and by default, Steven and Emily too!)
