Huh...

Apparently, I did not pick up celery yesterday... which is weird, because I remember seeing it in the store, and I'm sure I picked it up, but maybe I put it back. I did come home with 4 leeks, so I'm okay for vegetables -- but I wanted to buy celery specifically from the co-op, since vegetables tend to be fresher there than at the grocery, and given how slowly I use up celery, fresher means it will last that much longer in my crisper bin.

Try wrapping the celery in foil, covering completely. Since I don't use it all right away I do this and it usually lasts for 2 or 3 weeks. Be sure to rewrap securely after removing some stalks. Also try to buy one that has not just been misted. If it is wet, dry first.
