New Favorite Salad

This is a preview of my full post coming Thursday about the City Roots Harvest Dinner that we attended last week.  It was ah-mazing.  If you are thinking of attending one in the future, do it.

the hubs exclaimed: "this is the best salad I've ever had." and meant it.
Seriously yummy salad consisting of City Roots micro-greens, local feta, thinly sliced radishes, and an amazing cumin vinaigrette, for which James swears he's going to call Chef Ryan at 116 Espresso & Wine Bar to get the recipe.

The bread was from Heather's Artisan Bakery and it was slathered with anchovy-butter (from Happy Cow Creamery) and topped with thinly sliced radishes.  Amaze.

Local Fare

A friend contacted me last week to see if I would be interested in buying local, free-range, all-natural eggs once a week from a man in Columbia who raises hens in his backyard.  Um, yes!

Here's our first batch: (they are delivered in a store-bought carton that will be re-used each week)
love that they're all different colors and sizes!

Made some scrambled eggs this weekend and they were delicious--and the yolks are so bright. 

Also had some locally grown red potatoes last week and made lemon pesto roasted potatoes--yum!

Happy Monday!
