Friday-TGIF!!!

TGIF!!  I love these meme's-they make me laugh every time.  The sun really is shining here and it's going to be a beautiful day so that always makes for a good morning.  Another thing that's great about Fridays is of course it's the gateway to the weekend and there's so much to do around the Northwoods on the weekends.  I'm pretty pumped up to check out a local Farmers Market.  For those of us who can't get a garden to grow for one reason or another and love supporting local farmers, these are one of the best parts of summer.  I've gotten tried and true fruits and veggies and been introduced to some new stuff I've never heard of before-like Garlic whip...I never knew this even existed in the whole wide world of veggies until now!!  So if you didn't either, let me enlighten you-it's like a cross between garlic and green onions.  It has a garlic flavor but you use it like onions-I've cut it up and put 'em in eggs, stir fry, lots of different recipes and it doesn't disappoint.  VERY yummy!!  Another thing we get is root veggies-not talking potatoes here-stuff like turnips.  What the heck do I do with those things????  I found an awesome source for finding the un-findable-PINTEREST!!!  It's not just for crafting and stuff you'll never do around your house-there's some awesome recipes on there and if you've never used it, well, you better get started because you're missing out!  People like me in colder climates know this time of the year is like gold and we better not waste it so get out there, buy something you've never tried before, get a recipe and GET EATING!!!!!!
