Instead of asking for clothes or jewelry for Christmas this year, I decided to be more practical and ask for food, therefore now I get to enjoy a wonderful box of locally grown organic produce every other week for about 6 months. Although I have only had 2 boxes so far, I think that this is one of the best Christmas gifts ever, because its like I get 2 new gifts every month, I get to support local farmers, try new recipes, and get the health benefits of more fruits and veggies in my diet than what I normally would have.
All I need now is to figure out new and creative ways to cook the produce so nothing goes to waste- as you can tell there is a lot of food here for one person and I get the small box every other week. I guess I need to entertain more and start using my cook books.
As you can tell, I have a lot of cookbooks; I am a bit of a cookbook junkie.
