Farmer’s Market
One big benefit of our new location is the twice weekly farmers market 1/2 mile from our place. Today we scored fresh fruit and veg that will last until Tuesday’s walk to the market. Love it!

Whole grain rotini, peas, mango, sun dried tomatoes
Mango Yellow Curry
This is the second day at our new digs in a new city. First dinner was a pasta toss with tomatoes and tons of basil I clipped from plants before we moved. Moving day was chaotic as usual, so we had Thai take-out before leaving town. I noticed a dish on their board…”mango yellow curry […]
