Thanks for all the well wishes for our sniffles! We're feeling a little better these days and even spent Saturday morning at the local farmer's market. This is just a snippet of everyday beauty I wanted to capture with the camera and share with you all. Nature is amazing, no? These vibrant colors and earthy scents and delicious flavors....what more could we ask for?
Fig Bounty. I wish I had bought more than one container of these!
Having fun in the backpack carrier....
More freshness...
So much better than the produce at the grocery store. And cheaper. And no pesticides. Good stuff!
I hope you're all having a happy Monday!
Ohh just makes one want to cook. Clarice

Glad everyone is feeling better at your house. We have been hit at our house. I can't figure out why my son Grif is not sick, he usually starts it:)

What gorgeous pictures. Now why in the world can't I make bell peppers look like works of art the way you can? ;) Thank you for being an inspiration.
The chicken soup you made looked very yummy... I bet that's what's making everybody feel better! :)

Hi Andrea!
I've really been enjoying your blog! Our home was the same way when my daughter started school- chicken soup was the only thing that got me through it lol. I tagged you over at my blog if you're feeling up to it :o)

Nothing like a good farmer's market. Here in Colorado our markets leave alot to be desired...must be the climate. Enjoy the fresh goodies!

Love the pictures! Ever seen the cookbook "Blue Eggs and Yellow Tomatoes"? Inspired me to start my own garden this past spring and thru the summer. My tomatoes didn't look as good as the one's in the book but they sure tasted great. My tomato and pepper plants are almost done for the season and I will sure miss them. Stay well.
