No…not the warm weather, though that did as well!  🙂  My EnviTote!  Yay! 

I am very pleased with it and much more impressed than I thought I would be.  Very sturdy!  The strap has a velcro attachment so you can adjust the length. 

Also, the bottom of the bag has a piece of strong cardboard (?!) that will be great when food is in the bag, but removeable when I need to fold it up. 

I picked up some local eggs on my way home today and they fit perfectly in my new bag!

BTW, the eggs are from a new friend of mine’s farm.  He came to our first community garden meeting to give us advice.  He lives in Waynesville with his wife and young son and is a full-time farmer.  I asked all about his farm and what he produced and while his veggies won’t be ready until the farmers market next month, he said he had eggs! 

While I could pick them up directly from him, he also sells them at a local natural foods store, Zoolies

He said they sell them for $0.40 more than he does, so I decided to get them from the store to support them as well.  Can’t wait to cook with them!

I really wanted to get a recipe posted for you all…but it will have to wait until tomorrow.  I had a fun afternoon at the dog park with my two boys.  Here’s Nathan playing ball with Asher…

 

Off to wash dinner dishes 😦  At least the sun is still out!  Come on Spring!
