Every Tuesday morning. REALLY early, like before we wake up. A delivery man comes and fills our Winder Farms cooler up with food. It's the coolest thing ever and I hate to admit it but Gary and I go to bed on Monday night just like we did when we were kids waiting for Santa to come. And the first thing we do Tuesday morning when we wake up is race to the door to bring the food filled cooler in! The first week our delivery came (two weeks ago) Gary woke me up at 5:00am to tell me that the Winder man had come! Yeah, he'd already gone and checked and was SO excited! Why do we have food delivered to us? I'm glad you asked...allow me to explain.
There are many reasons we enjoy having a portion of our groceries delivered to us. First of all, Gary recently obtained a part time job with Winder Farms and as he has learned more about this company and the quality products they offer (I'll get to that), we both have been very impressed. We also wanted to try it out for the sake of Gary's job. First hand experience is always the best, right?
As I wouldn't call myself a 'tree hugger' YET (I'm well on my way though) I am very aware of all the waste we create on a daily basis. I don't even like to purchase or use paper towels or sandwich bags (although, I have yet to find another option as convenient as these) for that very reason. One thing I really appreciate about Winder is that they recycle their milk containers. The half gallon milk containers are made of a harder more durable plastic and when the milk is gone, you simply rinse out the container and leave them in the cooler out on the porch where the mystery Santa-like delivery man will pick them up and replace them with milk filled ones! Another great thing about the food at Winder is that the milk is hormone free and all the food they offer is organic! Yeah! No toxic unnecessary chemicals! Hooray for Health! In addition to all of those wonderful reasons, I have to say...the food and primarily the milk...is so YUMMY. Not just like any other milk. When I drink Skim milk, it tastes like I'm drinking 2%! And the Chocolate milk? Oh, don't even get me started on that one. Yes, I broke down and got myself a half gallon of chocolate milk a treat I seldom allow myself to indulge in. It is DIVINE! Pretty much I've almost drank the whole thing and it's been four days and Gary has not helped me one sip! (Now we know why I rarely let myself buy chocolate milk)Sorry you out of staters! Winder is only available in Utah, Nevada, and California...am I right Gary? But it's growing pretty quick, so maybe someday soon, you'll be able to have delicious milk delivered to your door every week!

Christmas every Tuesday? Sounds great. In Nevada? I'll have to check it out.
Actually, Winder Farms is in Utah and has expanded to Las Vegas, not all of Neveda. Also, it will soon be in Southern California. However, I do agree with Tara when she says how good it is and how healthy it is for us all. It is just like Christmas every Tuesday morning for us!
You guys are too funny! Sounds like a GREAT plan to me! Any chance they deliver to our neck of the woods?
finally - a new post! too bad we are moving or we would have to think about signing up for this santa service.
Figures it's a Utah thing! Bummer for me! That is hilarious though - I can just picture you all excited every morning. It makes me laugh out loud. Be careful...someone might come steal your winder food!
Thanks to you, Tara, I am a Winder Convert! Christmas starts for me on Tuesday!
