Going well...cooking a lot and trying new recipes. Lots of 'refuse' with artichokes my favorite spring vegetable

Bought prepared salad greens to eliminate waste. 

Made soup today using up some older veggies, so more peelings and bad spots.

Just some salad peelings today...been ordering out and taking home a lot of leftovers that I actually eat.

Out with the grapefruit that wasn't ripe...even though I let it sit for a month.

Eating a lot more vegetables / fruits has created more waste but I am also learning that some peels are very edible. Unfortunately I picked a grapefruit that had dropped off my tree and it was not ripe/sweet at all so I had to toss.
