This summer I have had the luxury of a Farmer's Market, held every Saturday, at a park right next to my neighborhood. It has been fantastic. I love going each week...I have my own little stand there where I sell bread...but that is another story for a different time...today's story is about all the delicious produce that I come home with every week....carrots, potatoes, cucumbers, lettuce, beets, lemon grass, jalapenos, etc etc etc. Fresh produce really is like heaven on earth and I feel ...

The Chips and Salsa Quilt Pattern
Today we are excited to release our Chips and Salsa Quilt Pattern. Growing up my dad worked nights as a cook at a Mexican restaurant. A delicious local Mexican restaurant that would become a staple in the memories of my childhood...with Friday nights spent there with my family eating chips and salsa. Chips and salsa...it's the comfort food of my family. There isn't a single, solitary family event...from family reunions to Sunday dinners to Christmas parties where the salsa isn't ... View the Post
