I have absolutely no recipes to share with you this week. Sorry. My husband was out of town for 7 seven days and I cooked one pot of soup the entire week. We ate leftovers. And omelets and salads. I like to tease him that every time he goes out of town I lose five [...]

This is going to be a quick post, but I’m proud of my Christmas tree and want to show it off! Friday night I picked up a tree at BADSEED Farmers Market from Laura at Blue Door Farm. Skipping the tradition of spending waaaay too much money on a tree was a smart move. This [...]

Today I bring you my first local-inspired gift/recipe….homemade amaretto liqueur. While it’s not amaretto in it’s truest sense, it sure tastes like it and can mostly be made with local ingredients (It’s sort of impossible to make real amaretto with local ingredients, at least for those of us in KC).

While it is on the Kansas City Star 2010 list of farmer’s markets, it’s not one of the major ones typically in the spotlight. Thanks, Heidi, for contacting and inviting [...]

I am back at the farmer’s markets! I’m only going to do a few more of these even though I know there are so many more great markets around Kansas City. Yesterday was no exception. The Farmers Community Market at Brookside is very quaint and full of amazing goodies. I think I counted five New [...]

This is the second installment of the Farmer’s Market Series and today we will be talking about the Briarcliff Farmer’s Market. Briarcliff is not the biggest market in the city, but it’s definitely worth checking out on a Thursday afternoon if you are in the Northland. Located in front of Green Acres Market, everything that [...]

It’s hot. It’s REAL hot. I have not felt like eating, much less cooking, anything interesting so I do not have a recipe to share today. We have, however, been busy teaching classes and you can read some recently updated posts for our Basics and Vegetables and Grains classes by clicking on the links provided. If you are enjoying your local [...]
