I Love Fresh Direct!

Hello all! It has been a very long time since I posted. I have been very busy with an estate cleaning, moving, settling in a new place and having a new job. I have been cooking new things but just haven't have the time and energy to post them. I absolutely miss my old neighborhood because of the Supermarket. The selection of meat and vegetables were amazing and very fresh. This new supermarket I am now currently next to is just sad! Then why did I move? I absolutely love my new spacious space and the commute is 100 times better than my old commute.

I still need to eat and correctly too! The new supermarket has nothing super in it. I don't think a lot of people here eat much fruits and vegetables. The meat selection is just scary. Since fruits and vegetables are not being bought, they just sit there. They sit there for so long that they start to rot. The chicken are abnormally large and you can see the fat all over it. The very small selection of fish is expensive and greyish. The beef is just OK. So what should I do?

This is where Fresh Direct comes and save my days. I order from Fresh Direct about once a month. People always think that they are so expensive but it is not if you go for the sale.  For about $80, I got two big boxes of incredibly fresh produce!

This is what was in the boxes:

- 4 mangoes
- 2 clear containers of organic Bok Choi
- 1 3 lb watermelon
- 1/2 gallon milk
- 4 baby eggplants
- 4 heads of organic garlic
- 3 ears of bi-color corn
- 4 peaches
- 1 chocolate milk
- 4 Fuji apples
- 1 lb organic carrots
- 12 oz organic cherry tomatoes
- Frozen peas
- 4 filets salmon
- 1 lb beef stew
- 1 lb ground beef
- 2 Cornish hens

I love opening the boxes and start cooking! I bought most of the produce on sale so it is cheaper then going to the store near home. Plus I did not have to carry all of those things myself! I always tip the guy delivering because my boxes are always so heavy. I once bought the big 9 lbs watermelon for $4.99 (among many other things) and the delivery guy never complain about the weight!
