Bountiful Baskets Rock!

So Bountiful Baskets is a non profit organization that let you order fresh food super cheap, because they eliminate the middle man (grocery stores) and give it to you at cost. So this is what I ordered this time. Homemade tortillas 24 6inch flour tortillas, 24 6inch corn tortillas and 36 13inch flour tortillas all for $12.00.


This is what they call the mexi- pack and it has 4 avocado, 2 packs of green onions, 6 limes, 8 tomatillos, 1 package cilantro, 2 green squash, 2 onions and 1 head of garlic. All for $6.50


Then they have the fresh produce basket that is 50% fruit and 50% vegetables. Which consists of 1 head of lettuce, 1 bunch of spinach, 7 tomatoes, 4 artichokes, 2 cucumbers, 1 pkg of radishes, 1 3lb bag of apples, 9 bananas, 8 kiwis, 1 cantaloupe, 1 honeydew melon and 3 6oz packages of blackberries. All for $15.00. Awesome!

That is awesome. I'm reading this book Animal Vegetable Miracle. It is about this family that ate everything they either grew themselves or could get locally. I really want to try it this summer.
Speaking of summer you will be here. We better get together a few times : ) for sure. LOVE YOU!!!

Blanding had its first delivery on Saturday--I didn't get in on time, but I certainly plan to next time. LOVE IT--and if you have ever seen or priced the produce at our ONE and ONLY local grocery store--well you get it.

Sounds intriguing. I love a good grocery deal. I haven't checked your blog for a while and now there is so much to get caught-up on. And the biggest news of all- your wedding dress till fits! Seriously, that is an accomplishment Keni! Mine was stolen years ago, but the thought of it frightens me somewhat. Your baby is truly adorable. I remember having a gift for your when Sky was born and never giving it to you. Now you have 2. When can we meet? I miss you.

Hey I just left you a message on FB :) haha But ya they have been working on your house the past couple of days?? Betsy went over there yesterday and said that all your carpet is torn up!! They are there right now and I can hear machines going for whatever they are doing....and the weather has cleared a little today, its supposed to warm up for a couple days and then get rainy again...its been ridiculous it has been raining so much here and it even snowed in SLC yesterday, we got the rain from the storm but not the snow thank goodness!! So you're not missing out on anything here right now cuz of the weather, but that will be fun if you guys come back for a little bit :) Hope ORegon is FUN :)
