Sweet Potato Breakfast Hash

I love breakfast. It has become a necessary part of my day. So much so that I make sure I have enough time in the morning to at least scramble some eggs with veggies. But what I really love are slow weekend breakfasts. The ones where you have time to try something new or to…

Farmers Market 11/8/12

What bright crisp morning at the market today. After a nice little heat wave we are cooling back down to autumn weather. The seasonal change of the market is finally taking place. Apples, pears, and grapes are the front runners in fruit. Along with a heavy showing of persimmons and pomegranates. Noticed several vendors with…

Farmers Market 10/4/12

No more raspberries at the market this week. Kind of wish I would have bought two flats last week rather than one. But I did get a great price on strawberries! Six bucks for half flat of organic/incredibly still sweet strawberries! Half of the flat has already been cleaned and chopped into small pieces and…

Farmers Market 9/13/12

Back to our regularly scheduled program today! After any time away, even if it is just two weeks, it is really fascinating to see how the season is moving along. Grapes are every where in the market now. Cherry tomatoes are gone, but the price of heirlooms are starting to come down. The big fruit…

Farmers Market 8/23/12

One too many days late, but I did make it to the market last Thursday and was able to take some photos but time hasn’t allowed me to get the post up till now… Monday, the following week. This week I intended to buy a honeydew melon but only found ginormous melons. Like way too…

Farmers Market 6/14/12

Oh summer fruits, I can no longer say no to you. What can I say, the fruit keeps getting better and better. Which also means I’m spending a bit more $$ to have these fruits but I’ve come to the conclusion that it is worth it since I will be gone for the month of…

Farmers Market 5/10/12

I think the season has officially changed at the market. It totally felt like a new market! There were more vendors, stone fruits were showing up… the likes of peaches, apricots, cherries, green plums. Several more vendors had tomatoes. Summer squash is starting to make an appearance. The price of strawberries has dropped several dollars….

Farmers Market 4/19/12

With Will being out of town this week the fridge still has a fair amount of veggies that need to be used up so I only picked up a few things this morning. Was completely surprised to find romanesco today! Looking forward to doing something fun with this fractal patterned/fibonacci numbered broccoli/cauliflower beauty. That was…

Farmers Market 4/5/12

A day late, I know! But I did get back to the market yesterday after being gone for nearly two weeks. It really did feel like I overbought but I didn’t. Instead I ended up splurging on 3 “new to me” items. Making up for the last couple of weeks? Maybe. Satsumas Guava (possibly green…

Farmers Market 2/9/12

I skipped last weeks market run. While it mostly came down to being tired from the days prior, I thought I might be able to stretch what was left for another week. I’ve not been happy with the amount of food waste I have had lately so my laziness was a good push use up…
