Yay, #oddBunch produce box has arrived with lots of goodies. Didn't notice the arrival as I was wailing away on a delayed #saturdayMorningGuitar session.
I see we have an unexpected pile of Mandarin oranges in there. Must be due to my feedback last delivery that the oranges didn't show up. Ha! Nice recovery.
Also substitute of grapefruit for the otherwise scheduled peppers. We're well positioned in the fruit department this week
One clementine was not in a good shape. Everything else was great. #oddbunch #food #fruits #vegetables
It's a veggie delivery day. Yay, didn't opt out this week. Got the five minute warning.
Yay - this week's #OddBunch has finally move on with the cucumbers and grapes.
I mean we like both of those, but it felt a bit like a firehose hitting us with unlimited cukes and grapes for a while there.
Watch - the "surprise item" will be their popular grape and cucumber medley!
Skipped two #oddBunch deliveries, but am back in this week. They've been incl cucumbers and grapes every week, and we were a bit tired of those by mid March. This week they were intended *again* but I did some substitution reqs to change it up.
They must load all boxes then adjust, cuz they left in some cukes, a few grapes and green peppers which I'd asked to drop, but I still got the requested items. A hefty box this week!
lol - they probably just need to get rid of things sometimes.
This oddbunch.ca box is going to keep the two of us busy!
Skipping our #oddBunch box delivery today, as we're still cleaning up a few things.
I will miss the brief hit of endorphins when it shows up at the door.
Curious how this goes. I seem to live in the same top-level postal code (K2G) as the #oddBunch people, and their veg delivery boxes are collecting in my garage.
They already re-use cardboard boxes - they're always labelled as chocolate bars and candies, presumably from some candy distributor.
I hope I can drop my collection of 15 or 20 boxes off for another go-around rather than send them to recycling.
Today's veggie box received. A hefty load this week, they must be a bit overloaded. I think we have too many tomatoes, cucumbers and grapes currently, so we'll need to do some focussed cooking to deplete them.
Veggies and fruit box arrived, just before we headed out for late-breakfast.
Will edit alt text details a bit later…

Yay, our #oddBunch box arrived! Short on warning text messages this week.
Had just walked in the door and got a text – finally, I thought. So I checked to see when it was due. It said instead "delivered." What?
Turned around and it was there. Magic!
Looks good - had substituted more potatoes to replace zucchini.
@stephanie @cynthb.bsky.social My #OddBunch this week. Seems slightly larger than usual but I asked for potatoes to be swapped for a second asparagus. And I got potatoes anyway. Maybe they forgot to take them out or maybe potatoes were also the surprise ingredient 
Quality is good overall. A few nicks on the zucchini skins. A few of the grapes are starting to go brown but not many. The asparagus is slightly spongy with hard ends. Trim the ends, stand in water. It'll be fine. 
Wouldn't be Saturday without sharing the box of fruit and veg we got today from #oddBunch.
Only substitute was extra Brussels instead of grapes, which we were still working on from last week.
We're overloaded on cucumbers now so need to find a cuke-intensive recipe for something.
Produce box delivered. My substitutions didn't work this time. Oh well. I can roast the red peppers and use them up slowly from the freezer.
(My partner doesn't eat them)
Curious what we'll get in our #OddBunch veg&fruit delivery tomorrow.
I tried to do a couple of substitutions but I realized the substitution form was stale. So I ended up substituting stuff out of the box that wasn't even on the menu this week. Could get almost anything. lol
@ZebKing I understand much of our fresh produce is imported from the USA. A Community-Supported Agriculture (CSA) system is a great way to buy Canadian produce. The downside is they are only available in the local growing season. I subscribe to a similar service that provides a mix of local and "imperfect" produce in a weekly box for my family. While it is still mostly imported produce, the idea is that it decreases the waste. #OddBunch #CSA https://www.oddbunch.ca/
i have fruit-and-veg withdrawal, as I elected to skip the #OddBunch box delivery today, as we catch up on our surpluses. Next week! Looking forward to it already.
I wonder if that supply is going to be affected in a trade war… although perhaps in a positive way if more Mexican and South American produce is available due to reduced customers being able to afford the self-inflicted import-taxes in the US.
