I have been on the hunt for the perfect egg ever since trying the uova da raviolo (ravioli with an egg inside) at Osteria Mozza. Heaven!


cheese farmers


I get a little emotional thinking about how amazing the farmers market is. A lot of markets say they support local farmers but the majority of their produce comes from California a week after it has been harvested. This on the other hand is directly from the farmers (families). I didn't see one stand that wasn't from Alabama. Stop paying the middle man and support local farmers! Oh, and if you want okra get there early...it's a hot item.
