Farmers market treasure

We’re having out-of-town friends to dinner tonight, so it’s been an afternoon of prepping beautiful farmers’ market veggies for roasting.

I have multicolored baby carrots

And cauliflower in 2 colors, destined to be Smitten Kitchen’s Cauliflower Salad with Dates and Pistachios. This is such a great recipe; I’ve had it on repeat all year.

I also grilled some pineapple planks for fried rice. And I have two salmon fillets for roasting, too! The oven will be busy.

I’m also putting together a charcuterie board with cheese, crackers, grapes, marcona almonds, sopressata salami, stuffed olives…if I can fit it all on there. Maybe two boards…

How are you spending your Labor Day? (If you’re in the USA, of course.)

Happy September!

It’s Labor Day weekend here in the states, summer’s last hurrah. I hope you have a little time to regroup before fall’s busy-ness kicks in.

Take a little time to just be…

just being

And enjoy the simple pleasures of life.
