From My CSA Box This Week - Fresh-Squeezed Orange Juice

The juicer that boyfriend bought me for my birthday finally arrived from backorder!  As I was jumping up-and-down with glee, I felt something sharp cut my foot, and discovered a shard of glass in my sock.  I have no idea where it came from.  It was quickly forgotten as we peeled all of the oranges I've collected from my CSA boxes and turned them into this:

This baby is going to get a LOT of mileage.  I cannot wait to play around with different fruit and veggie combos, and am hoping to stay away from buying packaged juice from the grocery store from now on.  I also hope this aids me in avoiding wasting food - if my produce starts to turn, I'll just juice it up!

On a side note, I can see why fresh-squeezed orange juice is so pricey.  We used nine oranges, and I drank that stuff down in three days.  But it was totally worth it.  

In case the song and dance routine I made up about the new juicer didn't properly express my gratitude, thanks, boyfriend!!
