I’m still really excited for my Door to Door Organics and I got my second delivery yesterday…

Green leaf lettuce

Celery

Broccoli

Cucumber

Mango

2 Oranges

2 Avocado

4 Plouts (Plum/Apricot)

5 Roma Tomatoes

4 Nectarines

Pint of Blueberries (not pictured)

For dinner last night we had an awesome salad with Boca Chick’n and fries. I’m even excited for lunch because of all the fruit I have.

Go ahead, make jokes…you know you’re getting old when you are excited about fruit and vegetables. Speaking of getting old…

I had a wonderful birthday that actually started on June 10 and led right up to the actual day.

Fondue with friends at the Melting Pot (hilarious times!), Chillin with Lisa, making a cake, birthday wine glass, BBQ , shopping, Sex in the City 2 (which I pretty much hated), lunch at Slows, sushi, cupcakes and Chuck cooked me dinner.

I think 28 is going to be an awesome year!

Last week I mentioned that I was signing up for Door to Door Organics. I’m not going to lie, I was really excited to get the box yesterday. Chuck was a little skeptical of the whole thing but he couldn’t really complain because if it didn’t work out how we’d like you can cancel at any time.

He called me as soon as he got home to tell me that our fruits and veggies had arrived. Even I was overwhelmed with all the produce when I saw it.

2 heads green leaf lettuce
bunch of carrots
2 pears
2 peaches
canteloupe (freakin’ delicious!)
2 cucumbers
3 green peppers
cherry tomatoes
strawberries

This is the bitty box too. Last night we got into the canteloupe, cucumbers and green peppers. They were delicious. I made Boca Chick’n patty sandwhiches on whole wheat buns with tater tots and cucumbers and green peppers. I was stuffed!

The whole experience was easy and truly painless. I’m ecstatic to have fresh stuff around the house!

I have a confession. I actually like eating fresh veggies and fruit, but I am clueless on how to pick a ripe avocado or mango. Bananas are easy. Green? Yellow? Bruised? Unbruised? Apples are simple too. So those are the fruits we end up eating week after week.

This past week I bought some cucumbers and a green pepper. I cut them up and ate them for an after work snack. I had forgotten how good fresh veggies taste. When my good friend Jenni told me about Door to Door Organics, based in Livonia, I was eager to check it out.

Door to Door Organics delivers organic and locally grown fruits and/or veggies to your door. Yes! To your front door once a week. My first thought was, “this is going to be expensive” but really it’s not more than buying them at a store. For the Bitty fruits and veggies box it’s only $23. It’s really flexible, I am getting deliveries every other week and if I’m going on vacation or need to skip a week it’s totally possible. It’s also commitment free so you won’t be locked into a contract.

Fruits & veggies locally grown and delivered to my door? Yes! Please!

I’m really excited about this. I get to eat healthy and I don’t have to pick up my own produce. I’ll keep you posted on how the delivery goes next Wednesday.

*Note: I was not asked to write about this company in any way, I just think it’s an awesome service.
