Food This Week 7

Happy circumstance: Mint categorized a purchase of school supplies at the grocery store as Groceries; once that was corrected, I have about $30 more to use for food this month. *cheer* I'll be restocking butter and flour, I think, and maybe getting some apples for applesauce. And treating myself to almond milk. (Cocoa! Pudding! No lactose!)

Produce Box

The haul this week (I FINALLY got a picture!) was all orange and green: 3 yams, 4 bunches of baby broccoli, 2 peaches, 2 pluots, and an avocado! (We get their small fruits & veggies box every other week.) We were supposed to get some oranges as well, but they must have run short; instead there are bananas that my wife will appreciate. They're green also, just now.

I can see the back wall now! Added the following:

• herbed goat cheese (TJ's had the three-pack we like; so I popped 2 rounds in the freezer)
• goat stew (left over from an event the missus attended)
