A. discovered today that STEM virtual day camp is considerably more taxing than listening to audio books. True! She also discovered that a thing she was doing does NOT auto save. Booo. So, she bailed out early. If this had been in person anything, she wouldn’t have been able to do any of it, so whatever.
I unsubscribed from Sunbasket. I thought about putting it on pause again, but why. I’ve been doing this for 1577 days (blogged about eating a meal from the first order on March 27, 2018), and at this point, on the rare occasions I order a box, it was after NOT ordering a bunch of boxes, because I couldn’t come up with anything low-allium enough to be worthwhile. And even when I get a box with some low allium choices, I wind up having to make modifications to make them interesting, which is very much the opposite of how this used to work for us. Sunbasket taught us a lot … but it taught us a lot, and it’s not clear they have anything more to teach us, and we have really, really, really good sourcing for food now. Best of all, our local delivery options involve a lot less packaging, and much more of the packaging is reusable. Highly recommend Sunbasket as a way to learn how to cook, and as an option for learning reasonable portion sizes. While their sodium levels are still higher than I like, they are lower than a lot of other kits. If you are vegan / vegetarian, they have options, altho there are probably better meal kits for those constraints.
The first meal from that first box, but modified, because I’m me.
