Wednesdays, made better

Wednesday is my least favorite day of the week. I know that's a bit odd; it seems like everyone hates Monday. I generally use Sundays to be as relaxed and lazy as possible, so Mondays don't seem to hit me the way they do the rest of my office. Wednesday, however, feels like the 13th mile of a marathon. When I wake up Wednesday morning, I always get that feeling of "Jeez, I'm only halfway through the week."

Never fear, I have found something in Raleigh that makes me look forward to Wednesday. I'm like a giddy child on Christmas Eve as I wait to arrive home from work to find a present on my front porch. Friends, I must introduce you to Papa Spuds. If you don't live in Raleigh, forgive me...and if you've heard me talk about it (maybe multiple times), I'm sorry.

For those of you who haven't heard of Papa Spuds, it's an online farmer's market in Raleigh. I log on every weekend and place my order, and the produce is delivered to my house on Wednesday afternoon. You pay the same amount every week, and you are guarenteed a box of organic (and mostly local) goodness. I've found that, on my small budget, it's making me eat more veges. On top of that, I look forward to cooking dinner, as my refridgerator is always overflowing with colorful fruits and vegetables. Check out papaspuds.com and tell em I sent ya!
