it is another beautiful saturday here in lincoln...which means an absolute perfect day for a morning stroll through the farmers market. i visited with my friend chandra at the mill (a local coffee shop) and then we stopped by some stands at the market and picked up some fresh spices and vegetables.
i mentioned yesterday that there will be a new feature appearing here on scenic glory this next week i call inside the picnic basket. i have never been one to cook, actually my husband is the one that enjoys it, but i thought it would be fun to give it a shot and document my progress (or lack there of..haha).
ever since purchasing penelope (my beloved camera) i have found that taking photographs of food is one of my favorite subjects. the close up detail, all the colors and depth...to me it is beautiful and i hope to embody that in my new feature.
i look forward to sharing new recipes with you too! for those of you that don't know, the hubs and i share what we call a "split kitchen." I am a vegetarian (who occasionally eats seafood), and matthew is a born and raised nebraska boy who loves a good burger. needless to say there will be a lot of variety in this new feature and i hope you will enjoy it!
happy weekend to you all...i'm off to do some prep work for this next weeks meals ;) XO lindsay
Hello lovely,
ReplyDeleteI haven't been one to cook, neither. But I'll definitely stay tuned and maybe I'm gonna join on in. :) Sounds absolutely great... Also, I'm really trying to figure out lately, if I'm gonna become a vegetarian as well. So really I can't wait to get to know your favorite vegetarian recipes. :)
Lots of love. Happy Weekend. XOXO.
Looking forward to the new feature! Food is one of my favorite photography subjects as well. :) Sea Marie
ReplyDeleteSorry anonymous but google still acting up for me......You got some great finds at the Market. Yours is offering much more than the OH ones right now I think. :o(

I'm really excited for this series.. this introduction alone looks and is so great! Especially since you're vegetarian which means I just might be able to make the dishes that you share, too!
ReplyDeleteI love the idea of a Farmers Market and I wish I had one close by! Well... I may! I need to check. :D SO excited for your new feature! *arm flail*
ReplyDeleteI OVE cooking now! I've always been a bit more fond of baking but the more I cook the more I love it. I'm excited to hear more about your cooking adventures. :)
