In Season!

From May-October I usually find myself longing to be in the midwest or northeast where everyone is outside playing and going to farmer's markets, etc. Somehow I always seem to forget that November-April is gorgeous in Tucson! In fact, our Farmer's Markets are just getting in full-swing now with the winter fruits and vegetables that we produce.
Kaia, Eileen, Melissa, and Dominic at a new Farmer's Market in town...

A spread of the goods...

I purchased some organic kale, a red pepper, yellow pepper, and a bag of organic pink ladies (if you haven't tried pink ladies yet...go out and buy some now....they are like candy...we love them!)...the first 3 ingredients were all used in this yummy recipe.

We've also taken advantage of the great weather by going out on some hikes.
Ventana Canyon Trail...


The ridge trail at the finger rock trailhead (can't think of the name of the ridge right now...)
