Happy Sunday! How was your first full week of April? Work was a little crazy for me, but everything else was pretty good! I'm excited for the rest of the month.
Since I'm not currently training for anything in particular, I'm switching up the format for my weekly review posts.

Volunteering with Bountiful Baskets
This morning, I got up very early for a Saturday, and Jeff and I headed to our Bountiful Baskets location. For once we actually left early enough to get there in time to help volunteer with the set-up.
So early in fact, that we were the first to arrive.
We chilled in the the van while we waited for the truck, the coordinator, and the other volunteers to arrive.
All the veggies come stacked on one pallet.
After unloading the pallet, we started sorting the fruits and veggies into all the baskets.
All finished distributing!
The extra add-ons are all lined up and organized, too.
It was super fun! And went by quickly.
Before I knew it, we were back home with all of this goodness.
Our regular basket included:
Fruits: red grapes, blueberries, peaches, canteloupe, watermelon, mangos
Veggies: lettuce, yellow onions, eggplant, lots of broccoli, grape tomatoes
We got a few add-ons as well.
We've been doing Bountiful Baskets on and off since the end of May, and so far, I'm still loving it! It forces us to eat better and try new recipes.
With all those wraps in my fridge and freezer, I'm off to Pinterest to find exciting recipes for wraps.
What's your favorite way to enjoy broccoli?
How about your favorite wrap recipe?

Imagine a pic of Jeff or me putting produce into the baskets. #bloggerfail

- Delicious fresh bread
- A crazy amount of wraps - 20 each of chipotle, garlic & herb, spinach, and tomato basil
- 8 lbs of strawberries. Well, I'm only keeping 2 lbs. The other 6 are going to a couple co-workers.
