Free Lunch... Everyday?

Join us for our occasional free lunch at whole foods. Just about everyday between 12-1 they have free samples of virtually everything. You start out with your fruit and cheese appetizers. Then move around and get some meat/cheese, perhaps some bread? Be sure to check around the sushi case for a sample or ask for a sample of the tuna or other prepared salads from behind the deli case. Then move around to the desserts and pickup a sample from on top of the case.


YUM YUM ... Lunch is served. But be sure not to do this everyday because you may feel uncomfortable seeing the same employees day after day. Also, each store (click here to find other local stores) does the samples differently so mix it up and try another store.

Check here for some free recipe's from Whole Foods: http://www.wholefoodsmarket.com/recipes/index.php

Should you choose to shop often from Whole Foods take advantage of their bag refund and bring your own bag.

Trade Me... Tomato for Watermelon?

Today's blog posting comes more as trading stuff than getting free stuff.

Lets say you planted 50 tomato seeds expecting 5 plants to grow and all the sudden 25 or 30 plants decide to grow. So you plant the seedling and those plants produce TONS of tomatoes (so many your family and friends are sick of them). What do you do????


Trade them for fruit or other vegetables! Check out this article in the NYTimes for some ideas on how to trade your "extra tomatoes" for some blackberries or perhaps watermelons (Katrina favorite treat)!
