I picked up my fruit and veggie box this afternoon, and look

Included that I don't think you can see in either photo, a huge honeydew melon, two kinds of broccoli, salad potatoes, aubergines a cabbage and corn on the cobs.

Also, a packet of dill that had gone slimy, so that's been thrown out. The box is advertised as fruit and veg, but they do sometimes put in treat type stuff. Which explains the carrot cake.







I usually pick up from the Re-F-Use café, but this time, with it being a different day, it was a pickup from an address from Durham. It was a quick drive there, but then I stood knocking for ages. Finally messaged the person who runs the collections, and they said to just go down the drive and the boxes were under the car port and I could pick which one I liked the look of. Did that and yeah, there were four boxes to pick from, sheltered nicely out of the sun.

Once I knew what to do, it was so much easier than a café pick up. Now I have an excess of carrots to deal with, and yes, more lemons *g*

Wow, that box is amazing! I can't believe there are so many things that we can't see in the pics, because there are a lot showing in the pics! You will be eating good for a while. Though now you have to sit down and create a menu for the next week or so, lol!

It was such a great box. Obviously, you take a chance on what you get, but I was very happy this time. I'll be sorted for fruit and veg for a while anyway.

But yeah, meal planning is needed. Especially for the aubergines, I've never managed to cook the things nicely yet.
