matt and i signed up for this thing called bountiful baskets this week. we had heard from a few couples that it was a fun thing to do. so we decided to give it a try.
you can go to their website at http://www.bountifulbaskets.org/ to read more about it since i probably won't explain it that well.
a basket costs $15. it is made up of different fruits and vegetables each week. the trick is that you don't have any say in what you get. you just sign up online and then pick it up at a certain location and time. the program is only available in certain states but, if you are ever in one of them, you should give it a try.
we got our basket today. and we are very pleased with all the tasty things in it. there isn't anything super weird that we won't eat. for example, a butt load of...radishes? we just need to make an effort to eat it all before it goes bad. matt and i don't usually eat a ton of produce. we wish we did. we are really good at eating salads and apples but, other then that, we don't buy a lot of produce. i think this will help us to be healthier.
we got a bag of grapes, a bunch of green beans, 1 cantaloupe, 6 peaches, a bag of cherries, 13 plums, 3 avocados, 9 bananas, a bag of baby carrots, 3 bunches of broccoli, a head of romaine lettuce, and 5 tomatoes. as long as we eat it, i think it will be worth the 15 bucks.
