Without Further Ado, I ask you to get yo booties in that seat, get thee a cocktail nice and refreshing class of H2O, or a lovely hot HUGMUG (you have one, riiigghhhtttt???) of tea, and Sit Back, Relax, and Enjoy the Riiiide! (And HOLD ONTO YOUR PANTS, VEGGIEGIRL!)

Citrusy and Flavorless!
Always eat your Papaya CHILLED!! It makes the world of a difference!
OKAY... Prepare for drool... (PS) Many of these are from spring/summer!
From up-top!
Strawberries (Organic) sale = A party!! Here with Napa Cab, Sweet 100 Cherry Tomatoes, Bell Pepps, HUGE Brussels, Shitakis, and some gorgeous Golden Beets!
Yellow Tomatoes for Gazpacho! (No worries, I peel them first!)
Leeks! So divine with Asparagus!
(PS) How Amazing are the BIG, FAT Asparagus right now!? I am so NOT a fan of the twigs (Any1 else?) ... Rachel Rae is--- What does SHE know?! j/k I just MICRO-STEAM the BIG MAMAS for 2 minutes and they are SO sweet and PERF!
THAT'S HOT.
I love me some BERRIES!
Do y'all like Snapizzles?
WOWZA!
Were the Blueberries not SPECTACULAR this Summer?!
LIKE BUTTA (Hey, Erinhomegirlmamacitawhatup.)
Oh, hey Buddha <3 (NAMASTE HOMES.)
NOW FOR SOME MELON LOOOOVE <3
It kinda looked like a Honeydew from the outside???
THEN LIKE A CANTALOUPE???
It tasted like a Citrusy Honeydew! Talk about Identity Issues... (I wonder what the sex/gender is...)
Regardless, it was refreshing and wonderful!
SEEN BELOW WITH THE LAST YELLOW WATERMELON OF THE SEASON!
Like my Bandaid?

Take care lovely lady! Show us how you eat some of that produce!! Eggplant and some of the greens are what I'm curious about....always looking for new ways to dress up them veggies!!!
HAPPY THURSDAY!
HOLY COW! I can't believe how many veggies you got! I saw those Santa melons the other day and thought they looked neat - but was too nervous to buy it!
I can't flippin believe the size of those brussel sprouts - CRAZY! :D
and delicious looking!
I've had warm papaya - and I was SO grossed out by it (in my head all papaya is gross now) - so I found that really interesting that you said eating it cold makes all the difference. Looks like I need to give it another shot! :)
PS - Love your nails! :)
