Angelrox--a bit of heaven

I recently had the pleasure of visiting the Angelrox studio in Brooklyn.  I've been eyeing "the wrap" for awhile now, but with my growing belly and the quickly approaching summer, I finally figured the time was ripe.  ;)  I was thrilled to be invited to visit the studio and to meet all the lovely people behind Angelrox.  In addition to their products just being flat out beautiful, versatile and comfortable, I also like supporting local sustainable business.  It's a win-win situations!  Here's info about Angelrox, from their website:

It's that time of year again--time to join the CSA!

I love the Park Slope CSA.  We've been members for awhile now.  I love the anticipation each week, not knowing what variety of amazing local organic vegetables we'll be getting with our Tuesday pick up.  I love the tomatoes.  :)  This year we're going to go on a trip to the farm to see where our food comes from and meet the farmers.  It's so nice sitting here in February thinking about the potential bounty of the upcoming seasons.  Happy sigh.

BUT this year, we're mixing things up a bit!  I'm excited to say that we're going to buy an every other week share with the tried and true Park Slope CSA and ALSO buy an every other week share with our local Sunset Park CSA.  So far we haven't wanted to switch because we love the Park Slope CSA so much, but the pick up location for the Sunset Park CSA is so close to home, and the farm is in a different area.  I'm excited to see the differences in our CSA comparison experiment.  It's going to be an exciting summer and fall of fresh, local, organic, delicious vegetables and eggs.  Yay!!
