My Veg / Fruit Box!I've ordered one this week, haven't been eating enough (maybe that's why I'm ill?!) so thought I should order some as I'll probably be here Friday when it comes... This is what I should be getting:
Mini Veg Box
onions
bunched carrots
orla potatoes
sweetcorn
spinach
calabrese
Fruit Box
mango
cox apples
bananas
oranges
pears
Extras
garlic
sweet Potatoes
mushrooms
milk
Now I just need to eat them all and make sure I don't waste anything!

I stopped my delivery a few months ago-really because of the weather! By their own admission, items were being repeated endlessly, so I got a bit bored with it all. Might start it up again soon- I always needed to supplement the fruit though, as there was never enough.

Yeah that's why I stopped, kept getting the same stuff and just didn't know what to do with it...
The fruit is ok for me, being one person and all!

I am sure there would always be stuff I didn't want and I would have to use it for the sake of it. Doesn't matter though as I don't think we have any deliveries here. Anyway I have a great little hedge veg right outside my door.

What's a"hedge veg?"

When a farm has an "honesty box" selling produce and you put the money in a tin. We have a lot of them over here.
At the moment ours has: cucumber, tomatoes, courgettes, carrots, potatoes, onions, home made marmalade and home made tomato chutney.All grown in the fields and greenhouse behind our house.

What a lovely idea.

Well I just got my veg and fruit boxes and instead of mangoes I got kiwi fruits!!!!!!! Normally this would be ok as I LOVE kiwi fruit, but last year I found out I was intollerant to them...
I have 10... the question is do I eat them or give them away?
|

Give them away before you make yourself even more ill!

AND, ask them for some money off your next order, explaining that you are unable to eat Kiwi Fruit and would not have ordered the box had you known they would be in there!!

I can't really do that as they say they sometimes have to substitute stuff... Dan likes them so will leave them here for him, or might take them to Dad's over the weekend, sure my wicked step mother will do something nice with them!
