Food This Week 24

Last week saw multiple restaurant meals and potlucks -- the social season is truly upon us! This week's menu includes big family meals at other people's houses, so the meals we eat at home will be fairly simple. Both of us have to work on the 23rd (and my wife works during the day on the 24th), but we'll be with my parents and sister and the extended family for Xmas Eve and Xmas Day.

Produce Box

None this week -- and although we had one scheduled for December 24th, I cancelled it (we'll be away). I'm stopping service in 2014 (it's me, not them -- I encourage you to sign up!), so if all goes well our last delivery will be on the 31st. (If not, then the last was last week, and that's okay, too.)
