The bountiful season is off to a good start!\u00a0 We have gotten\u00a0some much needed rain in the past couple of days which means all the plants are getting nice and fat.\u00a0 When the rain stopped for a bit yesterday morning, I went to check on my garden and gathered bits and pieces of herbs and flowers\u00a0for breakfast.<\/p>\n

Herbs & Edible Flowers<\/em><\/p>\n

I came up with something that was a cross between a Korean pancake and a cr\u00eape.\u00a0\u00a0 I warmed the flowers and herbs in some butter then poured the batter over it.\u00a0 The flavor was intense with the lemon thyme, basil, garlic leaf, chives, chive blossom, parsley, peppery nasturtiums, and gochugaru<\/a>.\u00a0 I rolled it up with some sour cream.\u00a0 Oh, and I garnished it with the one ripe strawberry from the garden.\u00a0 It was lovely!<\/p>\n

This morning, Keith and I went to the Mineral Point Market<\/a> which looked just\u00a0beautiful in the mist.\u00a0 We met some old and new friends and\u00a0got tempted to purchase a lot of \u00a0produce and some Marr’s<\/a> sausages for breakfast!\u00a0 Bures<\/a> was there too selling their first\u00a0strawberries of the season.\u00a0 Even though we plan to go to the patch to pick, I just couldn’t resist buying a pint.\u00a0 We also chatted a bit with farmer Rink of Shooting Star Farm<\/a> about the state of local food and where it might be heading.<\/p>\n
