P1010032

A vendor from the farmers' market sent me this link from "The Osgood File" a progrm on the CBS Radio Network. The short radio clip talks about Bon Appetit--a company that serves corporate cafeterias all over the country like at Yahoo, Adidas, and even the college I attended.
They have decided to make an effort towards serving locally produced and grown foods. It is a short clip, which you can listen to below. But the point that struck me most was that when you decide to eat locally, you must think of food preparation differently. Instead of thinking about what you are going eat, and then going to find the ingredients, start with the ingredients, and then decide what you want to prepare.

That's the beauty of our farmers' market. As I said in my last post, it is full of inspiration. Visit the market with an open-mind. See what catches your eye (or your stomach, for that matter) and start there.
