Going to the Farm
I have had the good fortune of getting to spend the last 10 days with our daughter at Foghino Farm. We’ve been preparing for winter, cleaning out the old, and breathing new life into this century-old farm. There’s something to be said about days of hard work, meals with fresh, farm-raised foods, quiet nights by…

Real Food Served Here!
GMO is one of the latest concerns with food. As a self-proclaimed foodie, I have to admit ignorance on this one. I’d like to think its because I use fresh ingredients and I try to make homemade foods for my friends and family! Because of my love of food and an even greater love for…
Fresh Sandwich Rolls
I love the smell of bread baking ~ cinnamon rolls, brioche, French baguette, ciabatta… and yes, fresh rolls for sandwiches! You will never buy another bag of rolls again, promise! Just think, in the time it takes you to get into your car, drive to the market, park, buy the rolls (and 25 other things…
