I missed last week with our back to back trips and had internet issues this weekend so I am a bit late getting this up for you this week.

This week we added a lunch box to our Bountiful Basketwhich came apples, pears, peaches and grapes. Saving a little extra at the grocery store this week on fruit.

Our regular basket came with lots of sweet potatoes, cucumbers, celery and more apples, bananas and pears. We missed getting a basket the past 2 weeks and it was fun to look for some new foods to make.
