Attack of the Produce

1) be's reaction to cornbread #5: "Aw be, why did you put peppers in this? You know i don't like jalepenos!" He then happily ate 3 cornsticks with vegetarian chili after picking out the offending chunks.

2) Today i ate in order: 1/2 banana (the other 1/2 was mushy), 1 kiwi, 1 pear, glass of gatorade, espresso shot, 4 cornsticks and 6.5 corn stars, 3 fresh spring rolls, french fries, coke, 1/4 jumbo bag of movie popcorn, sips of red icee, coke, 2 kiwis and 3 juiced tangelos. I'm not sure if this is a good food day, even considering how much fruit i consumed.

3a) Right now in the fridge we have: 2 heads green leaf lettuce, 1 head romaine lettuce, 1 bunch beets with tops, 1 bunch collard greens, 2 bags carrots, 1 bag baby carrots, 1 cauliflower, 1 head fennel, 1 large eggplant, 3 yellow squash, 1 bunch red chard and 1 bunch dandelion.

b) On the counter we have: 3 bananas, 3 granny smith apples, 3 red delicious apples, 3 d'anjou pears, 1 bosc pear, 1 seckle pear, 3 kiwis, 3 oranges, 2 tangelos, 3 butternut squash, 3 kabocha squash, 1 acorn squash.

c) In a bag on the floor we have: 3 garnet yams and 18 russet potatoes.

We barely ate any vegetables from last week's box and tonight we received another load! Tomorrow we HAVE to majorly cook. I'm not sure what yet, but it has to involve lettuce (we're not big salad eaters but we love croutons) and greens. The squash and potatoes will last a while and we can always juice the fruit; it's the veggies that we must cook before they rot.

4) What do we do with fennel? It looks like dill tops on celery stalks on a giant white turnip.
