Produce Co-op

I would like to encourage all you lovely sisters to participate in our produce co-op. Our ward along with the South Mountain ward go every other week and pick up produce at Kodiak Produce. This week I was able to be the "one" to go, and even though we only had 7 ladies participate we still got a great deal on some good fruits & veggies! I forgot to take a picture, (as I know some of you are very visual-I will get one next time!!) but here is a list of what we got!! (as far as I can remember at least)

16 Fuji apples
12 Bartlett pears
4 limes
3 heads of green leafy leattuce
3 lbs of grape tomatoes -yes that is 3 LBS-that alone would cost you $9 at the grocery store!
1 cucumber
3 bags of baby carrots
4 small butternut squash
& about 15 Naval oranges (if you are reading this and wondering why you didnt get oranges in your box, its because I paid for the oranges, but they didnt load them-so we will get them in a couple weeks!!)

I figure that is about $30 worth of groceries, so for $15 that is a steal. If you are thinking what the heck would I do with all those fruits and veggies, then remember this, you are supposed to be eating something like 3-4 servings of both fruits & veggies every day.

Anyway I could go on and on, but at least give the co-op a try!! If you are not already on the list, then just send me an e-mail, if you want more info please ask!! Have a great week and remember to eat your veggies!!

CARD-O-RAMA!!

The Christmas Card-O-Rama is almost here!

Don't wait until the last minute this year! Time to get your Christmas cards ready! Whether you painstakingly handmake them, stuff them, address them, add pictures, write in them, seal each one with a kiss = basically whatever you do to your Christmas cards, be ready to do it that night and we'll do it together!

7PM at the CHURCH. On THURSDAY. That's in TWO DAYS, people!

See you there!
