Spring is here...

and it was all over the farmer's market this weekend.
I picked up the most lovely fruits and veggies:
Chard and little gem lettuce,
strawberries and blood oranges
Meyer lemons and green garlic
fava beans and fresh peas

I think I am most excited about the peas (I am planning on making the carbonara from Sunday Supers at Luques).

I also picked up bacon from the Prather Ranch guys (www.pratherranch.com), fresh stone ground corn meal from Ridgecut Gristmills (www.ridgecut.com check out the website this woman is AWESOME), garlic Gouda, and fresh farm eggs.

Oh I always love the farmers market but really this is the season.  Spring is on Oh Yeah, time to your local farmers market!
