As I confessed to yesterday, I am a sucker for the Farmer’s Market. At my market we have a Pappardelle Pasta stand that I can never avoid. Their flavors are unique and impressive. I tend to find myself browsing the bins, asking a million questions and of course making a few unanticipated buys. I do [...]
‘Tis the season to…VISIT THE FINGER LAKES! I literally ate food and drank wine all day long. A few months ago I was fortunate enough to win a pair of tickets to the Cayuga Wine Trail’s Holiday Shopping Spree (Thank you again to Finger Lakes Tourism–especially Sarah who helped find my lost ticket ), and [...]
I’m “Home on the Range” again (aka my parent’s house) getting ready to move NEXT MONDAY! I have a long day of varnishing the coffee table I found on the side of the road (Score! I love when things are free!). This post is a bit of a piecemeal production, however; I will be in [...]
I had to make a Goat Cheese, Basil and Tomato Sandwich on 8-Grain 3-Seed Bread for lunch. The Farmer’s Market told me to. When you buy a tomato that triumphs the size of a slice of bread, it is mandatory to have a tomato and cheese sandwich. (My dad had the same thing for lunch [...]
1/2 cup rolled oats, 1/2 cup vanilla soy milk, 1/2 cup water, cinnamon, 1 TBS almond butter. Constant Comment Tea. My almond butter stash needed to be replenished so I finally broke down and bought my very first jar of Barney Butter. I have seen this almond butter all over blogs and needed to give [...]
Another successful Saturday at the Farmer’s Market! I was a very happy girl when we left with dreams of a big ole Farmer’s Market lunch. Dare I say it, this might have been the best one yet. Farmer’s Market Salad: Bibb and Red Lettuce. Olive Oil/Balsamic/Honey. Heirloom Beans. Roasted Beet. Cucumber. Blueberries. Goat Cheese (locally [...]
I finally got a measly run in today!! Measly because it was too humid to handle. All I had to do was step outside to break a sweat. I had half of a banana before heading out and came back to a creamy, cool breakfast. A new version of overnight oats.This looks the same but [...]
Last night I had a dream about pecan cinnamon raisin French toast. The loaf I purchased form the Farmer’s Market was SO buttery and doughy that it tempted me in my sleep!It’s kind of hard NOT to have French toast dreams when you have bread that looks like this. I cut a thick slice of [...]
I felt like a little kid on Halloween today at the Farmer’s Market with my eco-friendly reusable shopping tote slung over my shoulder. I get a little hyper and excited around fresh produce and homemade baked goods. No shame. Among other things purchased by my parents, my small stash included: fava beans, cherries, Pecan Cinnamon [...]
Well sort of… Good Morning! Good Morning! Good Morning! I am a ball of energy today (clearly) and it’s all because I started off on the right foot. I was wide awake at 5:45am and it was a lovely 64 degrees out. I decided to take advantage of the peaceful morning and go for a [...]
