On to the Grocery....

The farmers market was a bust yesterday- poor selection and rude vendors. In a fit of disappointment, I went home and refused to cook for the rest of the day- my measly score of odd shaped peppers and local grapes didn't offer much culinary inspiration. So today, I am off to the grocery store. I don't know what I hope to find. I would like to make a nice melon soup, chilled of course. I want some lettuce, to make salads, and I want mushrooms to make stuffed mushrooms. Portabellas, stuffed with brown rice and shaved almonds. ... served with mushroom gravy and asparagus, with a fresh spring mix salad.... yum.

Farmers Market Saturday!

Tomorrow I am loading up the kids in the car and heading out to the farmers market- the one on Saturday is more bare bones than the others through the week. I am going to load up on fresh fruit and veggies, and tomorrow I am going to make a really good vegan meal. I don't know what I am going to cook. All I know is that it will be fresh, local and healthy.

I can't wait to see what the market has to offer, and what I make out of it!
