i recently completed another trip around the sun, and the more trips i have, the more neutral i become of them. i know people my age who are still so excited for their birthday every year, but all i want is a quiet day with my family and to not have to cook.
i honestly could not tell you the last time i cooked anything interesting or fun. it's all basic and boring, and no one cares much. this year has been a draining year, and i haven't enjoyed much of it.
we've been to the farmers market a few times this year, which has been nice. i even made it to a couple of wednesday markets too.
we haven't got out to Desert Hills or Davison Orchard this fall. FALL already! Dark at 7:30! Dark in the morning! Maybe that is why i am interested in pumpkin spice, a new feeling for me....
speaking of pumpkin spice, i highly recommend pumpkin spice cream cheese. a big hit with the family.
i bought some heirloom tomatos and tiny plums at the wednesday market, and we made brushetta with tiny plums on the side.
last weeks sunday brunch was croissants and muffins and meat and cheese and fruit and my moms potato leek soup.
if you get a chance to try the pickle foccacia from Brynn's Bakery - DO IT!
