Summer is here

So summer is in full swing...... The kids seem to be loving the Puppet shows & Live music.
We have been adding more dates to the evening events.... go to puppetstock.com for more info.
I'll try & post the dates here also but, I have been very busy making the trailer go -round.
No time for posting... only time for baking

Puppetstock is here

Please join us for the opening of Puppetstock. Presented by Rachel Elizabeth & Lot 13 productions.
Our first puppet show will be June 13th at 10am with both Mudeye puppet company & Penny's puppet productions.(kids $3 & adults $5) all money raised goes to the artists.
We are very excited to host this event this summer & have added some shows with musical guest Sal DeBain.
Sal DeBain's music is contagious. Symptoms include outbursts of laughter and unstoppable foot-tapping, hand-clapping, dancing and jumping-up. His performances have been known to affect kids ages 1 - 101.

Now Open for Summer

Summer is on it's way.... All the herbs in the garden are in bloom. Fresh Juice is back on the menu!
We have been getting Daisy (our trailer) ready for summer. We are building a fence & planting more garden on the back half of the lot. So everyone will be able to enjoy the space. All kinds of fun stuff is planed for the season. We will be having Puppet shows for kids on select Friday mornings throughout the summer. (for more info visit puppetstock.com) Movie Night will be finding it's way onto the Rexall Building wall in late June early July. Come visit & see what's new

Eat Mobile

I had so much fun putting our booth together...I have always loved creating space.

We had a good time & every last cookie & muffin was given away.... The Ginger Lime Macaroons seemed to be the favorite with Cashew Butter & Sea Salt coming in a closed second.
All the kids were so sweet. They would get all wide eyed at the edge of the table & their little hand would reach for the Spiced Coco Crisps or a Lemon Lavender Shortbread....Then big grins would appear

All the food was delicious.... It was such a treat to be able to sample all the goodness. Lena had her mission to get us bites from every booth. We started with Goulash from Tabor warm & spicy..... then we had some Dahl with paneer from India Chaat House YUM.... The line for Asian Station Cafe was long but Lena offered to trade cookies for dumplings.... good thinking. We were set up next to Tita's Pista so we had easy access to crispy Lumpia.... We missed out on the Russian food ...So now I will have to make an effort to visit Julia at her mobile cafe. I'm a sucker for a Chocolate Cupcake thanks New Season. Rudy & Emily from Jr. Ambassador scooped the night away... I enjoyed the Smoked Salmon & Cream Cheese ice cream the smokey finish was very nice. So now with all this inspiration & a lovely Sunday off with William.. including brunch at Simpatica that was so over the top. I'm refreshed & looking forward to the weekend. Hope to see you all soon

Clafouti Anyone?

I know this is more of a desserty dish but I love it for breakfast...... Steaming & Bursting with juicy fruit... creamy warm custard in every bite. Paired with a rich latte from the Fresh Pot what more could you want on a spring morning. We will be serving Clafouti this weekend filled with red plums & raspberries. (baked to order..... worth the wait)

Breakfast Bread Pudding & Obama

I've been dreaming of living on a farm lately.... getting fresh cream from cows & warm eggs from under the hens that lay them.
I love to make simple basics.... So last weekend I made a Breakfast Bread Pudding with Blood Orange Syrup & Creme Fraiche.
I made the creme fraiche..... Letting the cream & buttermilk sit in a thick ceramic crock & get thick overnight. I enjoy the slow process of watching it transform. I'm experimenting with a yogurt cheese this week. Will see what happens.
William & I went to see Mr. Obama last week & it really gave me a sense that maybe we can choose a new path. He speaks from a place in him that reflects a much deeper conversation we all need to be having as human beings.
