Food in its many forms

I have really been enjoying the farmer's market of late. Strawberry season went long this year, and they last forever. I don't know if I can ever go back to store-bought strawberries.

We used them along with the blueberries from our backyard to make sauces for waffles. We used my brother's waffle recipe:



They turned out great!



In the meantime, I got a new book of crochet patterns, making toy food. I did most of this during our daytrip to visit wineries today.


A slice of pumpkin pie. I'm going to mix it up a little and do a cherry version soon.


My little (actually, kind of big) strawberry


J decided to try it out

A little peanut!

And a big red tomato!

I'm still working on the chocolate chip cookies

To market, to market

I'll admit it, I'm jealous of my sister in law. Because she lives in southern California, gets to visit multiple farmer's markets in her area, and post yummy blog posts like this. I, on the other hand, live in the Poconos and had a rough, rough winter.

But the farmer's market finally opened here in May, and I look forward to Saturday mornings. Here's what I got today. The plastic bag holds a big ol' bunch of spinach, and the paper bag is full of home-grown snap peas. And I got a batch of yummy looking scallions.

Bon apetit!
