It's veg box day:) Every two weeks we get a veg and salad box delivery from a local Greengrocer. Started in March last year in lockdown and have carried on. I get so excited when the brown boxes arrive, what's inside, what meals can I make from what's inside? It's like Christmas! At the start they couldn't tell you what would come but now you can look again on the website to see what is coming but I just like the excitement of it all!! It's Friday night tonight so eldest will be cooking, chicken and veg curry. He's been on Friday night tea duty since the new year.
@casablanca It is! I batch cook the first week, the second week I defrost and if it's all gone before next delivery there are always frozen peas on hand!
A beautiful selection. Ours is far less beautiful to look at (lots of roots covered in soil) but it often includes ultra local produce from the farm at the college my partner works at. Veg boxes are just great.
That looks fab! I got a massive box from our greengrocer at Christmas- now I’ve gone back to going in for bits and bobs but I want a big box again now I’ve seen this!
Nice bright still-life. I'm with you re the excitement of getting a veg box delivered. We have been having an organic one a week for the past 15 years plus a fruit box. It's good to contribute to the local economy in this way.. it keeps the money in local circulation which has to be the way forward
PS Also good to get the boys involved in cooking. I've had 3 boys now ranging from 47 to 28 years old and they are all excellent cooks. Happy birthday too... not too precise about the date: maybe tomorrow (22nd) or yesterday (20th)?
