I am almost ashamed to admit that this Saturday I went to my first farmer’s market in Milwaukee. I KNOW – it’s sick and wrong. Me – the girl who grew up on my honorary aunt and uncle’s organic farm –\u00a0Creekside Farm<\/a> – during the summer, spending Saturday mornings peddling fruits, veggies, and flowers at THE farmer’s market on the Capital Square in Madison, Wisconsin. Hell, the first thing I learned to drive was a tractor on their farm. Honest.<\/div>\n
Though the South Shore Farmer’s Market is very different from the Dane County Farmer’s Market, the dog-friendly atmosphere, a priest making smoothies, a French man making crepes, and being on Lake Michigan in South Shore Park was wonderful. Next time, we will take our dog Max to meet all the dogs.<\/div>\n
For dinner on Saturday, I made\u00a0caprese salad<\/a> – and it was THE most amazing salad ever! Imagine perfectly ripe heirloom tomatoes, fresh mozzarella cheese, basil, and 25-year aged balsamic vinegar . . . so amazing!<\/div>\n
