Hello out there…“Oui, c’est moi”… Yes, it’s me…!still here after a few months on hiatus.
So sorry that I was gone so very long, but sometimes personal “things” take precedence over all else…
yes even food blogging…lol…
I will be back here on a limited blogging schedule of two or three times a month or so.
I hope to bring you delicious images and yummy information to wet your palate for the summer bounty ahead.
Please don’t look here for too many recipes, as this site will be evolving into a more informational and photographic venue. There are SO many recipe-based food blogs floating out there, I wanted this food blog to have a different feel as I restart it after my absence.
However, if I do find a dish that is particularly yummy, I promise to share the recipe with all of you.
I wanted to resume this blog with a photo-stroll through one of my fave outdoor markets, the French Market in Western Springs, IL that is held every Thursday from 2pm to 7pm.
With this romantic history of Parisian Markets in mind, imagine a market that you can visit and be comfortable in any weather.
At this market, you are shaded from the pounding rays of the summer sun and unexpected showers while you shop for your dinner, a fresh loaf of bread for breakfast toast, a trinket for a gift or a stunning array of flowers and pots for your garden.
I came to the market intent on focusing on ingredients for a menu for my Fourth of July feast. While shopping for my “feast”, I came across a few vendors of note.
In particular, I will be highlighting some fabulous PORK, PRODUCE and GARDEN Vendors in an upcoming post very soon.
Meanwhile here is a link to my post last year of My Favorite Local Farmer’s Markets
Wishing all my faithful blog readers a wonderful Fourth of July weekend…!
