It is 1:30am and I should be in bed! Not only do I have to work in the morning, but I have a bit of a sinus infection as well. Oh, and my vacation is over officially as of 7 hours from now when I have to wake up.
I really just wanted to take the time out to talk about a really awesome thing we have in Toronto called Front Door Organics. What they do is deliver fresh organic produce (and more!) right to your front door or business. For only $35 you can get a basic box of fresh fruits and veggies, and for $40 you can get a custom order box delivered directly to your front door. That price includes the delivery. No, I am not getting paid by Front Door Organics to say this (I wish!), I just really think that for $35 every week or two is not a huge cost to have fresh organics included in your diet.
So, having said all of that, I have not used this service as I am extremely lucky enough to live in a neighborhood that places such high importance on organics and natural foods. I can walk five minutes down the street and have an abundance of both. Not everyone is so lucky, or finds it easy to leave their home to buy organics for themselves. So I thought I would pass on the word!
I know there is a HUGE debate in this world about organics, but for myself, I prefer them to non-organic. Once you have allowed for getting used to not tasting pesticides anymore, and numb tongues to begin to remember what a piece of fruit tastes like, there really is a difference. I also know I am probably pissing off some people by writing this, but c'est la vie!
If you want more information on organics delivery in the Toronto area, please take the time to visit these sites and try them out:
Also, if you have ever used them before or are willing to try them out because of this little old post, drop me a line and let me know how it is/ goes!
