Farmers Market + Tastefully Simple = favorite!


I have two obsessions... ok well probably more than two but who is counting!

I love summer because of all the Farmer's Markets in our area; we can never seem to get enough of them and come October when they end we are sad all fall and winter. Click on the following link to see what ones might be close to you - Colorado Farmers Market 2011 - our personal favorites are Boulder and Golden. We highly suggest checking one out and supporting local farmers.

My 2nd obsession is Tastefully Simple! I started my business with TS as an independent consultant back in 2010. After several months
I took a break and am now resigning again! I have never been more excited about the opportunities I have with TS and am jumping in as fast as I can. If you would like to learn more about the business and or check out products (many of which I will be using and referencing in this blog in posts to come) click on the following link - Heidi Gunn's Tastefully Simple Website - or email me at justataste2010@gmail.com.

Now on to a recipe using both my favorite obsessions!
