In our house, we have a rule. Only fruits and vegetables in the hour or two before dinner. Trouble is, Mom's a last-minute-Charlie and doesn't always have a fruit or veggie handy. Luckily, every two weeks we get a box of produce delivered to keep the health systems in this household from grinding to a halt. It's something I do for my family without actually having to *do* anything. The reason I started it was that I quit work for a while to have a couple of kids, but had never cooked before, much less planned menus 7 days a week, 365 freaking days a year. PLUS there are all those horrible things I read about chemicals in food. How could I feed my family nutritious organic food on only one income AND actually continue to enjoy the concept of food? Pioneerorganics.com, that's how. They have a variety of configurations for what/how often. They have a natural foods grocery store online, from which you can choose additional things to add to your delivery--and soon you'll be able to schedule regular delivery of many of those items. Ingenious recycled storage boxes. Cooking-oil-fueled delivery vans. Eat your greens! Keep a pretty fruit bowl! Get Pioneer Organics!
