The Lettuce Shop

I just made my second order from The Lettuce Shop. Both times I have ordered a simple $30 seasonal fruit & veg box.

Ironically, common Iceberg Lettuce is hideously expensive at the moment, so you won't get it in a seasonal box.

I was impressed with the first box, so decided to order again. The latest box was meant to arrive yesterday afternoon. I waited, and waited. No box. I called them up. Not sure what the issue was but obviously something had cocked up and my box didn't get to me. The woman said she'd get my box to me this morning. Not a problem I say.

Now, I'm not sure if she's added a few extra goodies due to a stuff up or just that they really are that good value. Being seasonal boxes, you'll get your standards like potatoes, onions, carrots, apples, oranges, bananas. But everything else is a surprise - which I quite enjoy.

This order I got in my box (remember, this cost $30, no delivery fee).

6 Bananas
1 bag of Mixed Greens
1 punnet of Cherry Tomatoes
1 bunch of Bok Choy
a head of Broccolli
1 Eggplant
half a Butternut Pumpkin
1 Avocado
2 Valencia Oranges
3 Tomatoes
4 Pink Lady Apples
4 Granny Smith Apples
4 Pears
6 Plums
1 Zucchini
2 Onions
13 small Potatoes
5 Carrots

That teamed with the bulk meat and bulk chicken pack I bought the other day means no grocery shopping for a while. :)

Dilemmas.

Do I do garden stuff on Saturday? Mum & Dad can come up to give a hand. Or do I wait until I can get soil on a Tuesday when I believe it is 10% off. I would like to get this garden started asap.

If I'm going to pop along to the Idol auditions on Sunday - how should I get there? I have no idea what the public transport options are. Parking will probably be a bitch. Maybe I could organise to be dropped off/picked up? Sarah and Ryan - are either of you definitely going? Because I'm only coming to give you guys moral support. I don't think I'd audition because I'd be too scared of actually going through.

Hrmmmm.
