Seven A Day

[kerravonsen]

I am now drinking the juice of four organic oranges, on ice. Today I got my first "assorted box" from a new organic fruit-and-veg online shop; my old one went out of business at the beginning of this year, if I recall correctly. Or was it the beginning of last year? Whatever.

This one... isn't as good, I don't think.
(1) It's more expensive, though that could be because they guarantee that everything is organic, unlike the other one.
(2) They already got two items wrong. I specifically said I didn't want avocados or potatoes, and they gave me an avocado and four potatoes.

The box also had the aforementioned four oranges, two mangos, a bag of mushrooms, a bundle of asparagus, a whole butter lettuce, some kiwi fruit, onions, a small bunch of coriander, four carrots, two cobs of corn and a bunch of rhubarb. I've never cooked rhubarb before - how does one cook rhubarb? I recall my sister saying that rhubarb makes a good base for a sorbet, so I'd like to try that.

This will not help you with your diet at all, but the only way I've ever had rhubarb is in pie or crumble.

We used to have a rhubarb patch in our back yard when I was growing up. If you like, I can ask my mom about it when the fam comes to visit this week.

Can't hurt to ask. 8-)
