fruit and veggies

[forgotten_aria]

se we decided to give Boston Organics a try. The first delivery was today. It's a nice box of fruit and the pear, lettuce and grape tomatoes I've munched on have been very good. Certainly better than Star/Shaws/"and ants" but not better enough to warrent the money. For our $25 we got one HUGE head of lettuce, a bunch of broccoli, 1.5lbs of bananas, two sweet potatoes, 4 apples (greg ate one), 2 pears (I ate one), 2 oranges. a box of grape tomatoes (which are almost gone, yum!) and a green pepper.

So why haven't I rushed of to the web site and cancelled. Well, because today I've eaten more fresh fruit and vegtables than I've eaten in a long time, simply because someone picked them out for me and delviered them to my door and I am often willing to spend a little more where my diet and health are concerned.

But I think that it's still too extravegant, so I will wait a little and likely cancel and hope to pester myself to buy something in Star the next time we go shopping that's green.

Based on their preference for local stuff, you might get more to your box in the summer than in the winter.

(I would totally go for a service that delivered piles of in-season tree fruit, so if you find out what they're like in the summer, I'd be interested to know.)
