What a month! I decided at the beginning of the month to take .mindypelz’s challenge to see if I could eat 200 different foods. I started the first week by eating what we already had. And then each week after that, when I went to the farmers markets , I just looked for foods I hadn’t yet eaten. A couple of the foods I had never actually eaten in my life. Like … rhubarb, swedes, various squashes, and some varieties of mushrooms. It was a fun challenge and I think I’ll keep going for variety. It certainly kept things interesting in the kitchen!
