How Much Produce Does Seventeen Dollars Get You?

That much. I think I got everything in the shot (sorry... it's my iPad. No fancy business here).

Just picked up my order from Capital Roots today and this is what I got:

4 cucumbers

1 bunch of scallions

2 zucchini

half a pound of spinach

1 lb bag of carrots

5 bananas

1 large bunch of collard greens

2 lbs green bell peppers

2 lemons

5 oranges

1 pomegranate

1 "produce project pepper" which apparently were green bell peppers...

2 lbs red potatoes

My total was 17.31

Not too bad, I think. 

Winner, Winner… All Good Bakers NY Farm to Chef Summer Dinner

As is ritual now, my morning break consists of me on my phone scrolling through facebook and twitter updates. And Wednesday was more of the same, scanning through the posts, glossing over tweets when I just happened to see one that Professor Fussy posted about an open seat for the first dinner. I figured I would give it a shot and posted a comment. Didn’t really think much would come from it, so I dove back into work. Two o’clock rolled around and hello! An email informing me that I won. And not just an email, but also a message waiting for me on facebook to get to it and confirm my spot.

I won?

I won!!
