Boston Organics delivery

  • two big bunches of dandelion greens
  • a bunch of green Swiss chard
  • a bag of nine potatoes (five pounds?)
  • a bag of spring mix lettuces
  • a small bag (half a pound?) of sugar snap peas
  • five narrow stalks of broccoli
  • a green pepper (do they ever send other colors?)
  • a good-sized eggplant
  • seven roma tomatoes

Any suggestions for the dandelion greens? I sauteed them last time (with onion), and they were a bit too bitter for me straight like that.

I dry them, and make tea - it's a wonderful diuretic.

Interesting. I'd never think of that.

These days, I haven't been drinking much tea (or non-water beverages, actually). I keep thinking I should drink more tea, but haven't quite managed it. Perhaps with the weather getting warmer, I'll make iced tea...

I've been taking Burdock Root capsules, and Dandelion Greens tea - instead of taking Lasiks for the water retention. It does the trick!

Cool!

I'm on a diuretic already, actually, for blood pressure.
