Basket full of yumminess

Today was another pick up for Bountiful Baskets. Once again I was really happy with my purchase. The organic basket is only $25 and I got

3 squash
a bag of green beans
head of romaine lettuce
Swiss chard
head of broccoli
4 zucchini
1 package of grape tomatoes
7 gala apples
3 grapefruit
8 pears
and 1 package of divine smelling strawberries


I also got the Italian add on for another $6

1 eggplant
2 yellow onions
1 red onion
1 zucchini
1 garlic bulb
Italian parsley
1 package of mushrooms
a bag of fresh herbs that I am not 100% sure what they are. I think Rosemary, basil, and something.


Showing up in the mornings if always fun, even though it is a little early for my taste on a Saturday morning. You never know exactly what you will be getting until you are there. This week there wasn't anything too new and exotic which is always kinda fun because it makes me really think about how to use the produce. This week it was just some of my favorite produce. We already have finished off the strawberries and they tasted as good as they looked.

Easter eggs revisted

Thanks to Cecilia's recipe for dying with natural made dyes I was able to salvage the oh so ugly eggs.
