FARMERS MARKET

Lately I have found some great finds at my local Farmers market, it’s a very tiny market but great things do pop up. Recently I found giant blackberries, plump and sweet. I also found the always elusive Aurgula Sprouts. I paired the sweet berries with the peppery greens, winning combination.

SALADS DAYS

I love the term “salad days” as it refers to much more than a salad.
It is also a time of youth, innocence, and inexperience. A period when a person is young and inexperienced. My favorite time of life.
