I popped into @chocolatinenj early on Mother’s Day and was rewarded with this deliciousness. Layers of soft flaky croissant dough, tender smoked salmon, light whipped cream, thinly sliced red and green onion slivers and dotted with capers… it was every bit as amazing as you’d imagine it would be. If you’re local, don’t sleep on this one. 😋

Today would have been my friend Cathy’s 53rd bir Today would have been my friend Cathy’s 53rd birthday. Unfortunately she’s not here to celebrate because she died suddenly at age 49. I think of her often … every Mother’s Day because we spent most of them together since her husband worked weekends … when I discover a new food adventure (we once did a day long donut crawl) … when I’m sharing a special time with my kids knowing that her then-11 year old is growing up without her. Before she passed, I always appreciated every day, but since then, even more so. You never know what the next day can bring, so relish in the sunshine, surprise rainstorms, making wishes over railroad tracks and all the wonderful randomness life can throw your way. Don’t waste a single second, say yes, live on the outskirts of your comfort zone, laugh often, tell people you love them, give eight second hugs, and squeeze every ounce of joy you can out of life. Do it for the people who can’t. ✨

    What gorgeous photos! I especially love the produce. It has turned cold here all of a sudden, I fear an end to summer veggies soon!

    I love the olive pictures and that puddle rainbow. The Farmer’s Market is one of the best places to take pictures. So much inspiration.

    Laura, Melissa, Marsha – thank you!

    Lacy – me too! Instantly made me want seafood though. ;)

    Dawn – thanks! can’t go wrong with cupcakes. :)

    Jade – aw, thanks! Loved all the colors in the gas pic too.

    Susan – I’m tempted to buy it and try it – I haven’t had that version before, but just read that it’s like a woodsier version of cauliflower. Have you tried it?

    Claire – I did buy some eggplant – couldn’t resist the color!

    Ramona – I’m going to be bummed when it ends for the year – have another two full months to go and will be enjoying it until the bitter end.

    Starnesfam – oh thank you so much!

    Joanne – it’s great for dinner inspiration too – and I always find a new vegetable that I’ve never seen before, so it’s been a great way to learn about new ones.

    Sarah – this one that I started going to this year is definitely my new favorite. Although small, it’s got a nice mix of stuff.

    Natashya – I’m right there with you – what are we going to do all winter? I definitely need to start getting into canning some things … that might be next year’s project.
