I think that each week, our starting time at the farmer’s markets are getting earlier and earlier, because I’ve been wanting to get done with all three markets before 10am so my day isn’t shot. We were dead tired because of a late night of firework and watching Rick Springfield at the Dublin festivities last […]
Knowing that this weekend is ComFest, and the Pride parade, and that there’s a gaming convention going on as well, our goal this morning was to get to the North Market as early as possible, and get done as quickly as possible so we could avoid the crowds - our main priorities were to get our […]
Ah, another weekend, another edition of One Local Summer. This week was tough for me on an eating local level - since I missed the farmer’s markets last week, I didn’t really have many local veggies to work with, so I made do with some locally produced products along with some local meat I had […]
Happy solstice, everyone! For better or worse, summer is finally here. Up at the crack of dawn again, and we made our way out to the North Market before 8am. It looks like strawberries are winding down (last week they’ll be available until fall from what I understand), and today I found these […]
Every time that I think I’ve got my husband figured out, he does something that surprises me and makes me fall in love with him all over again. If food is love, this dish is obsession. My husband volunteered to make this week’s recipe for One Local Summer, and he truly outdid himself. This came […]
We got another super-early start to our Saturday market crawl, but I was a bit more cranky than usual, in part due to lack of sleep, but also because it was pretty darn warm and humid even at 8am. First stop was the North Market, where I didn’t have to stand in line to get […]
Well, it’s been a rather busy weekend (the grill finally arrived, more about that later) so now is the first opportunity I’ve had to sit down and talk about my trip to the farmer’s markets yesterday. To say that yesterday was a breathtakingly beautiful day would be an understatement. Clear as a bell, not too […]
Weekend Herb Blogging (hosted this week at Wandering Chopsticks) is a food blogging event that I always intend on participating in, but usually never get around to doing. But when I bought those chive blossoms last weekend, I knew without fail that this was my week.
I was searching on the internet for a recipe to […]
It was a beautiful spring day yesterday morning. We got up before 7am, picked up my mother, and managed to make it to the North Market before 8am. Still, everybody was pretty much already set up, so I got to shopping. Wish Well Farms had the last of the morels of the season, so I […]
Guess where I was last night?
If there’s one food event in Columbus that is a “must attend” for me, it’s the Apron Gala. This is the third year in a row I’ve gone/covered it (here’s coverage of #10 and #11, respectively), and I’ve had the date saved ever since they announced it. So it goes […]
