Last night went pretty well, considering I cut my finger on a piece of glass reaching for a jar of pasta sauce. We didn’t bother going to multiple places; it was freezing out, I was bleeding, there was no need since I mostly wanted fruit and yogurt and found plenty of both. They were throwing out a lot of flowers from Valentine’s day, so I took a nice bouquet of red roses for myself. There were also a lot of good unopened sauces and yogurts that whose only fault was being smeared with yogurt or mustard from a smashed container. Here’s what I got:

• chicken thighs
• smoked salmon
• carrot juice (quart)
• 4 navel oranges
• 3 blood oranges
• 3 lemons
• 6 apples
• strawberries
• blackberries
• 5 brown tomatoes
• a bag of multicolor mini peppers
• a head of cauliflower
• 2 bags of kale
• 1 bagged spinach salad
• frozen blueberries
• frozen broccoli
• gluten free everything bagels
• challah rolls
• fruit and pecan bread
• salsa
• enchilada sauce
• 3 cheese pasta sauce
• pepper jelly
• 3 large tubs of vanilla yogurt
• mascarpone
• 1 lb brown rice blend with black barley and radish seeds
• Bamba peanut snacks
• churro snacks
• beet crackers
• coconut oil
• probiotic capsules (I’ve heard these can be used to help with lacto-fermentation for foods like kimchi and pickles)
• 1 dozen red roses
