Phrase borrowed and credited to Amie Cheese Whiz S. Man, I am behind the times. Locavore was the 2007 Word of the Year for the Oxford American Dictionary.

Set up for another good week of local voring. I was so excited to share the farmers market with Christian this morning. Highlights were the halibut, for sure, and we got there just in time for the last of the chicken stock from my favorite farm-fresh butcher booth. The most beautiful bouquet of flowers I have ever had, sun flowers and fire orange dahlias, a one pound onion, and the new weird vegetable I have forgotten the name of – it looks like a sea monster, but its supposed to taste like cabbage.

Tomorrow I’m going to bake a peach crisp with plumbs and mega-giant blackberries. Next week I’ve gotta take my camera.
