April is Distracted Driving Awareness Month – Did you know thousands of people are killed and hundreds of thousands more are seriously injured in distracted driving each year? Distracted Driving can occur when you take your mind off driving, take your hands off the wheel, or take your eyes off the road. Personal grooming, eating, trying to find the perfect radio station, or reading a text message are all common driving distractions that should be avoided.

Avoid these distractions while driving:

Peas

Carrots

Rhubarb

Asparagus

 Artichokes

Fava Beams

Radishes

Leeks

Spring Garlic

Spring Onions

Fennels

Shrimp with Snow Peas

Carrot Ginger Soup

Rhubarb Crumble

Roasted Chicken Thighs with Flannel and Orange
