Ah it's been awhile since I've been in this space and now that we've finally "settled" into our new home, I will be back regularly!
If I hadn't already mentioned it, a few months ago, we moved just north of the city to Skokie, IL. It's a very vibrant community and ironically we are now closer to the boys' school than we were when we lived in the city, plus we have the added bonus of great nearby parks, a few friends from school live close by and my kids are becoming "neighborhood kids." Slowly we are learning our way around, albeit, we've always been regulars in Skokie for shopping but never to actually experience much more than that.
On Sunday, my little guy and I ventured out to the Skokie Farmers Market and were not disappointed. There was free parking across the street, the vendors ranged from the honey farmers in Wisconsin to cheesemongers with a variety of artisan cheeses and of course we came home with a plethora of farm fresh food.
For now, here are some pictures from our morning out and about. Needless to say we will be back next weekend to replenish our supply of fruits and veggies which has already dwindled significantly in the last 24 hours and I'll be posting recipes in the next few days utilizing our goodies!
