FRUIT BOUQUETS

Sometimes I wonder if my neighbor, who is on a limited income, eats properly. Her trips to the store are bi-monthly. If she buys fresh fruits or veggies, they probably don't last two weeks. The price of groceries is soaring. The reasonably priced items are usually full of 'high fructose corn syrup', 'sodium', and other unhealthy things.

Maybe you have a friend, relative, or neighbor in the same predicament.

Recently I have seen commercials on TV for 'fruit bouquets'. They look so cute - and yummy. I'm not a very creative person, but I think I could put one together and have it look relatively appealing... and if it is a small one, it shouldn't be to costly.... Seems like a nice gift.

OK, I'll try it - if you will!

Contents - fruit that will last longer; the ones full of vitamins; that have versatility. I'll just use some of each from my usual fruit purchase, starting with one banana, two oranges, some berries, and ...on from there.

The week in between her shopping trips I'll deliver it.... Maybe the next time I'll try veggies, or a combination!

Please, let me know how your 'bouquet' turned out, and how you built it. How was it received? What will you do next? Keep me posted either below in the comments, or at 2maketheworldhappier@gmail.com.
