Busy Weekend

Did you know there is an organic farm right smack in the middle of Austin? It's called the Boggy Creek Farm. They have lots of fresh greens, smoked tomatoes (which apparently have been shown on the Food Network), and flowers, amongst their many items. They have market on Weds. and Sat. from 9-2, so if anyone wants to go, just give a holler and we'll join you. We met the owners at the Barr Mansion food tasting for the wedding.

The Market -Kyle examining the land -CHICKENS! They use their chickens for eggs only. Aren't these pretty flowers?


That's how we started out weekend out, by going to the market. We bought and have tried escarole. Kyle - the cooking genius - whipped the escarole up with a some shallots and goat cheese - it was delicious. This weekend, the weather was gorgeous, and probably the only two days of spring we will have.

We also went to a our friends' wedding shower.

I feel like we were busier than I have stated. We drove around a lot doing typical errands, that can surely eat a chunk out of relaxing time.

The farm was the highlight of the weekend, and Kyle's escarole saute was quite exciting too!
