life in fresno

one of my favorite things to do, is go to a market, and pick out fresh veggies. i like to imagine what i will make with them as i buy them. i got some romenesco a few days ago, & knew it was going to be a part of a salad with the horseradish. the purple chard i knew was going to be either the "tortilla" for a wrap, or maybe part of a tofu scramble. (it was the latter).

it's nice that in fresno, i can do the things i love, so frequently.

farmers markets check
flea markets/thrift/estate sales check check check
country music (for nate! lolz) check. 

roadtrips (i guess ya can do those anywhere, but still feels like we do those more often nowadays)

that's me scoring a pendtleton blanket at an estate sale! yeah!

so far we've found a few dive bars/pubs where we can enjoy some good, ol timey, music. last weekend nate even joined the band for a johnny cash cover. everyone is just so nice there & they love a good song!

(that's not nate in the picture singing, ha ha, just some other guy.)

 ok. i really want to post more recipes... mostly for my own sake. so often i make something on the fly & we say things like "oh yeah, gotta remember this one!" but then we never remember that one.
so that will be my valentines resolution (so... i know it's not a real thing).
at least a recipe a month (or more!) deal? deal.

thanks for looking, as per ushje. ush...yoush? (what's short for usual!?)

see ya!
