A few girls in my neighborhood have been participating in these food co-op's and I've been intrigued. So this morning was my first time and I have to say I am convinced its a great way to shop for produce. Allthough I did feel like a bit of a homeless person standing in line at the fire station with my laundry basket waiting for food! =)
Bountiful Baskets is the name of the co-op and they have pickups all over the state.
It costs only $18 the first time and then only $15 after that. I got a HUGE basket full of fruits and veggies. There is also another food co-op that you can check out if your interested (I might try this one at the end of the month). GREAT way to keep some nutritious health food in the house during the winter when we can't garden! Plus I got a watermelon and a pineapple- YUMMY!
If you can see Katie in this picture she does not look happy. She hasn't felt good for weeks now but never bad enough that I thought she needed to see a doctor. But its been going on so long that I finally took her in today and she has STREP- poor thing! She gets it often enough that maybe I should consider having her tonsils removed? But she was actually mostly sad in this picture because her Dad has made this device which fits over her finger and then attaches to a bracelet so that she doesnt suck her fingers. Its working GREAT but she did not want to put it on this morning! A friend of mine sent me a link for a device which you can buy that is similar but costs $75... of course Greg can make it better =) We'll see how it works... so far so good!

wow! you'll have to keep us updated, I can't even imagine Katie NOT sucking her fingers. Are you sure you want her to stop?? :) ha ha, just kidding! :)
Poor little Katie. The food co-op looks fantastic! I want in.
I sucked my thumb until I was 9. My parents finally got me a book called, "David Decides". And then they put dirty socks on my hands all day and all night until I stopped. (I cannot believe I remember the name of that book, it must have scared me!)
That co-op looks awesome! I will have to look and see if there is one by me. I now have a finger sucker so Greg may have to teach Stewart how to make one of those contraptions. :) I hope you guys have a great year!
