Greens & A Fabulous Still Life!


LFLF was out and about this weekend gathering greens .... or should we say buying greens from the farmers who gathered them?!?  The peas were delicious steamed with just a touch of real butter.  The romaine lettuce is on the menu for tomorrow and we're thinking about chopped, sauteed garlic scapes in smashed potatoes ..... :)

The garlic scapes came from the Beaver Farmers' Market today.  It definitely took a bit of effort to get to the market since Beaver, PA was hosting the popular Garrison Day Festival.  Parking was tight all over town and you had to swim with the crowds.

LFLF also took the opportunity to support the local arts scene ......  While winding our way back to our parking spot, we bought this beautiful fruit & veggie still life.  Artist Irene Ackerman of Baden, PA, is shown holding her watercolor.  It will be perfect for the kitchen!
