No Excuses

Knock Knock... ?

Anyone out there?

:)

I really don't have any excuses for where I've been all these long winter months. Blame it on my poor skills with the camera or my inability to tear myself away from a good book! I'm happy to say spring is in the air! How can I tell? My allergies, of course, but I'm not letting that get me down. The Farmer's Market starts in 4 weeks on May 17, with new, later hours - 7:30 - Noon. I can't wait.

And now... well, really there's no excuse at all. I started this post on 4/29 and here it is, June 2. My how the time flies. Spring is over. Summer heres. Three Farmer's Markets have gone by Bloomington and Normal welcomes its first market tomorrow! I've been enjoying all the market has to offer, great cheese, bread, meat, veggies, and great friends! It's fun to see so many familiar faces. Like last summer, I make stopping in at A.Renee a must. I try to pick a new bottle of wine each week, but with favorites like Stella Rosa, sometimes it hard. I picked up a new Moscato D'Asti to try this week! I'm also excited to see that A. Renee has a blog up, stop over and check out all the fun things these wonderful ladies are up to! I'm also trying to expand my veggie horizons this summer. I picked up green garlic this week. I'm not sure what I'm going to try making with it. Anyone have any suggestions?
