We were blessed this week to be the recipients of an awesome "train table". I'm not sure if The Girl will love playing with trains, but she is LOVING having all the blocks and things to play with. She keeps looking at us when she gets into the drawers like we are going to tell her she can't play with them. Then she just smiles and goes back to playing. We are very excited, even if it means we have to rearrange some furniture so we can keep it in the family room.


This was also my first week to participate in a program called
Bountiful Baskets. I am so happy with it, I actually split a basket with someone, so imagine all of this doubled.

For $15, or $7.50 for each of us, we got:
20 brussel sprouts (I was given all of these from the basket because my friend already had some to use up)
4 kiwi
3 mango
6 apples (The Girl and I shared one on the way home)
2 cucumber
6 green chilies
4 green peppers
2 heads of living lettuce (which means I could plant it and keep it growing)
2 pineapples
2 cantaloupes
2 bags of tiny potatoes
2 heads of broccoli
6 bananas
Now I'm not quite sure how I'll use all of my half up, but stay tuned for what I'm sure will be delicious looking pictures.
