Easy like…

Sunday MORNING! It has come to my attention that you Baywood folks need a bit more advanced warning for your soup choices enter: Sunday morning soup blog.

As I think about the week ahead, I’m drinking some of Paul’s Ethiopian Dark Nectar coffee with more than my fair share of creamer, listening to the world’s most annoying mocking bird and looking out my window at the glorious Pacific with warm dogs pressed against both my legs.

I’m looking forward to hopping on my mountian bike with my friend, John in about an hour then (energy and wind permitting) paddling out on my longboard this afternoon. Oh, this blessed life. I am thankful every day.

Here’s what you will find at the soup booth this week:

Monday in Baywood, Thursday in morro bay and Friday in cambria

1. Mung Bean Kitcharie

2. Creamy Roasted Cauliflower

I look forward to seeing you guys and don’t forget your jars!

Also, an update on the highly anticipated “produce explosion” it’s getting there, still no celery but the abundance is bubbling up. And an update on my husband, Kaley… he is making progress, his doctor has released him to go back to work full time on light duty. It will still be some time before he’s back on a bike but we are more positive every day that biking will once again be part of his life. I am beyond (really) grateful for your support through this. Your success stories and check ups mean the whole wide world 💙💚

Come on veggies!!!

So theres one or two weeks out of the year when the veggies seem to just… stop. The bunches of kale and chard are small, celery is nonexistent, the carrots are like orange toothpicks, and the bins (which are usually filled to the brim with produce) are picked over or empty mid way through the market. Well. That was the last two weeks and wanna know what typically happens next? A produce EXPLOSION. I’m anticipating this for this upcoming week so come on down and see if my produce predictions are accurate!!

Also, Mike Seroni has Cherimoyas (at the Baywood Market) so if you come for no other reason than that, you won’t be let down!

Geez you guys, the ocean was a crazy place this weekend. We stayed safe on the shore and played in the creeks which are all flowing so beautifully!

I’m so excited for a bit of extra sunshine to sweeten up the springtime fruit! I got a 3 pack of blueberries from Cortez farms last week and ate the whole thing in two days. They were fantastic!

Warm 🌱

Wow, what a stunning weekend that was! We spent the weekend at one of our favorite spots up in Big Sur. The water was crystal clear and deep enough to dive into and it was just beautiful! The waves were a little too big for me to longboard so I grabbed the sponge and boogie boarded until dark. Washed clean by the serpentine water of Big Sur and the salty Pacific, I’m ready for a week of soup making and seeing my dear dear customers!
