Today I stopped by the local Farmer’s Market*. The closest one to my house is very small, but nice.
Lots of produce. Green onions, radishes, new potatoes, mixed greens, fresh herbs, asparagus and new potatoes.
I looked at all of this lovely stuff and couldn’t come up with a single idea of what to do with it. And, I tend to not buy produce unless I know what I am going to do with it. So, today I left almost empty handed (couldn’t pass up the chive cheddar cheese!) but making a mental note of “come up with something to use all that good stuff!”
Best part was finding two new meat suppliers – Smith Family Farms for Angus Beef and Cibola Farms for buffalo meat. (Links in sidebar under Suppliers.) Both have free range pork as well. I didn’t expect this at all, but I grabbed both of their brochures and I will pick something out to try next week.
Seriously, if I were on Iron Chef, I’d be done before I even started. :)
*In years past, the thought of going by only occured to me on Saturday afternoons, afterкомпютри they were closed. I’m trying to do better this season.
