Harvest Bin

I've been getting Farm Fresh fruits and Veggies delivered to my door twice a month from Dandelion Organic Delivery. I've blogg'd about them in the past. I want to say, I'm still a big fan. I am so proud of myself. I have been eating veggies that I never knew existed and I've been cooking some great meals. All the produce is Local and Organic, that makes me feel good too.
This is Jetson, my 1 year old. He attacked the Harvest Bin when I got it this week. He ate two plums and a Donut Peach before I could get the order put away. The kid can barely walk but figured out how to open the lid and take his pick.
This is a Roast I made, minus the roast. It was off the hook delicious!
mmm.. Yummy Purple Potatoes. These make great mashed potatoes, they DO turn out purple. Huge heads of lettuce, Broccoli and the cucumber in the bottom of the picture was SO large, I couldn't get the whole thing in the shot.
If you live around Bellingham, Washington. Do Dandelion Organic Delivery. Do it! It's a great way to save time and money at the grocery, a wonderful way to support your local economy, it's flipping good for you and it's Organic. nuf said...

Cloth diapering and Camping. It can be done!


I was posting some photos to FB the other day from our camping trips we took over the summer. Someone asked what did I do without my cloth diapers? Jokingly, I hope. I then quickly realized that some may think this is an impossible feat to accomplish. It can be done. Granted it takes some prep work but really what doesn't? I stuffed a bag full of my cloth diaper stash, wipes, a few small wet bags and a couple of plastic grocery sacks.
It was fun camping and easier than I thought while cloth diapering. The poo diapers were to be dealt with later but the pee dipes were rinsed in the river and hung to dry. This cut down on smell and room. Of coarse i packed way to may diapers for two nights but if we would have ran out, the rinsed diapers would have been fine.
All the diapers packed up pretty easy hen done. The river dipes were surprisingly soft for being line dried. My poo dipes were...well poo'd diapers but all came out clean and fresh after the wash.
It made me think of Pioneer days. I was bent over the river standing on a stone washing diapers. Funny. My husband thought it was sexy. Who knew washing diapers was so sexy, especially in the wilderness?
