Amazing Farmer Markets

It is summer and produce is in full swing. Ever since I moved back to the PNW, I have been more involved in local farmer markets and believe you can attend a different local one each day of the week. Yesterday I picked up my CSA box and berry share of the season and OMG . . .it looks incredible! So in honor of farmer markets everywhere; below are 5 incredible ones you can find in your global travels. Guess what? I have been to some of them.

Summer Treats

It is taking a while but it is slowly warming up in the PNW for us. We are beyond Memorial Day so summer has officially started for me. One of the things that I love the most are frozen treats but I really can’t handle the dairy or sugar so I like to find healthier options for my frozen fix. Below are 5 recipes to help do just that.
