This morning began early. (Side note: I’ve been asked a lot recently what I’m planning to do. I’d like to figure out a work day that consistently begins and ends at the same time. This whole work late, work early thing is wearing me out!) Anyway, it began early, running around the apartment gathering my [...]

From today’s winter market, a colorful blend of what’s in season. In January. In the northeast. This is crisp, clean and delicious. I might make the stir fry and put between a poached egg and an English muffin and call it brunch!

I made this today at the first of a few winter farmer’s markets. The brussel sprout dude sold out and I even had some converts and kids singing the praises of the sprout!

The waning days of summer mean plump ripe melons, tomatoes, jalepenos and more herbs than the farmers know what to do with. Cilantro was a dollar a bunch at today’s market! Here’s a sweet twist on salsa, or a savory twist on fruit salad. Savory Melon Salsa After a few weeks off from the cooking demos today was my first day back. I left in summer and while technically it is still the same season, the fall bounty is starting to roll in off the fields. This is a delicious transitional soup for the change of seasons. Enjoy!
