The Fruit & Vegetable Bar is my daily reminder (to myself if no one else) to eat some fruit and more vegetables sometime today.

In the past I’ve gone to the store and stocked up on bags of fresh produce, only to toss them out a week (or two) later when they are no longer fresh (or far from it). But I’m getting better at making my fresh fruit/veg plans a reality rather than just a dream.

And one thing that seems to help is buying seven apples at a time. It’s nice to see the bag shrink as the week goes on.a And it’s a reminder to get to the store to buy more when I’m down to one or two.

But it’s not so many that they’ll go bad if I forget about it one day.

Wait, I haven’t had my fruit yet today! Have you?
