Spring Is Here!

Look at this Asparagus!  I got two big bunches in my bountiful basket last week (see post below).

And these Daffodils!!  Under $2 for 10 stems at Trader Joe's!

Something Worthy of First Blog... A Bountiful Basket!

So about five months ago, a friend from work told me about a produce food co-op called Bountiful Baskets.  It is amazing.  It has a $1.50 one-time buy-in fee and then it is $15 each order (which you could do as often as weekly, no minimum required).  Included in this $15 is usually one large paperbag full of fresh seasonal vegetables and another full of fruits.  I also get the "add-on" bundles sometimes, like a mexican pack, asian pack, or italian pack.  The packs are between $7 and $10 usually.  There are a bunch of add-ons including granolas, breads, season items like Christmas trees, Sees Candies, Pumpkins, Thanksgiving Pack, etc.  You order it and then bring bags and pick it up on Saturday!  Check out the link above - they have pick-up sites all over AZ.

I get a bountiful basket every other week - there is more than enough to last Kyle and I two weeks - If you store it properly!  I chop and bag everything so that it can last the two weeks I need it. 

You really won't believe How much stuff I can get for $15, so the next time I get a bountiful basket I will post everything!
