Read more →Last Thursday I unintentionally made dinner from items that were all purchased at the Brigham Circle Farmer’s Market or picked from my back porch.

Read more →Hello all! I admit to laziness lately, mostly because this intense urban heat has left me with little desire for time in the kitchen and more inclination towards things like frozen veggie burgers and take out.
