@Julia, I know what you mean about not bringing the husband along! I try to keep him as non-involved in the food buying as possible to preserve my sanity. My son goes through phases with the bananas – he often forgets they exist, but other days it’s full-on tantrum. I’m happy it will be spring soon (at least here) and we can get local strawberries, his other favorite fruit.

It *is* hard sometimes. As long as my husband doesn’t come shopping, I can get away with it all. However, the banana thing with my toddler son is an entirely different situation. Sigh.

Love this perspective. I have a green gap, although it is shrinking, with my sis and we do family dinner most Sunday nights. It can be a little exasperating…

I care about eating locally, but living in New Hampshire that would mean basically eating only frozen vegetables all winter long and no fruits at all. It’s difficult for sure. Best of luck!

We’ve been working to be more green and local over the last year but have to admit I like my bananas too
