Organics to You

Last week we finally signed up for an organic produce delivery service. We've been wanting to eat more vegetables but fail to know what to get at the store other than our typical items that belong in a salad. So I bit the bullet and ordered a box that will be delivered every other week. They even provide recipes with the items online. Our small box came yesterday morning!

Isn't this fun!! Last night we made grilled vegetables with our eggplant, hot pepper, onions, and some sort of greens. It was yummy. It's incredible how much better these vegetables taste when you bite into them just as is. I don't think it's a mental thing, but I'll take it if that means we eat more vegetables. We never struggle with fruits but it's nice to get a balanced mix in our box.

Yesterday Reesa and I headed to OMSI for the afternoon. We didn't go last week and I think Reesa missed her playpals. She is getting more brave and ventured out of her infant area and explored a few new stations with the big kids. We even shared leftover pizza and a nectarine in the snack area. Two little boys watched intently as Reesa ate her nectarine. I think they were impressed with her skills :)

Do you notice that Reesa is wearing big girl jeans? Oh yes, our first pair with a button and zipper. Wow!!

Here's Reesa taking in a few minutes of Sesame Street this morning. It was a skit from American Idol. I think she was confused as to why there are puppets on television.

Today we are going to check out a friends art display at a local cafe and going to the Melting Pot with Alison and Aaron. We've been trying to go for months as we got this as a Christmas present. We have to go before baby Geist comes which is any day!!
