From last week the fridge still contains:

• some lettuce
  
• some broccoli stems
  
• spinach
  
• 3 potatoes
• some red beets
  
• piles of apples
• piles of pears
• 3 mandarins
  
• several kiwis
• celery
• 1 1/2 red onions
• 1 yellow onion
  
• green, curly kale

The Compost Pail of Shame (what I didn't use and had to compost):

• A tangerine
• green onions (really starting to think I should just ask that these not be included in our box)
  

Aloo gobi was made last week and between that and some roasted we used all of the cauliflower. A huge pot of split pea soup helped to use up more of the potatoes, celery and the carrots. Going to try to make us up some fresh apple/pear sauce to use up all of those, perhaps tonight. I also think there will be some fresh citrus juice this week. Salads will be in the week's line up. I'm also thinking of pasta with all the spinach.
