CSA, Farmers’ Market, Bountiful Baskets

Posted in Gluten Free, Homemaking, and Photography

Project 365 – #141 What do all of these things have to do with each other?  They’re all great ways to get fresh fruits and veggies at a more affordable price. You’ll also be supporting local farms/farmers which helps the local economy. At a Farmers’ Market, you get to decide what you’ll be taking home with you that day.  If you’re a regular, you’ll get to know the vendors which may allow you to work out a few deals.  You’ll learn the best time of day to come to get the best deals.  (At our Farmers’ Market in Northern Virginia,…

Gluten Free Breakfast Sandwich

Posted in Family, Gluten Free, Homemaking, and Photography

Project 365 – #139 D loves to have his bigger breakfasts.  While he’ll eat cereal, he would much rather have eggs, pancakes, waffles, breakfast burritos… You get the idea.  He likes to start his day off with a hearty meal.  Before his surgery, he would make his own breakfast burritos or omelets or heat up something I had already made such as waffles or pancakes.  Now, he’s not able to do the cooking – at least not yet.  The good this is that he’s not getting up really early, so I can make breakfast at my own pace.  **grin** This…
