Spring Is In The Air

By Courtney 24 Comments

It’s FINALLY starting to feel like spring!

IMG_1836

IMG_1831

It is an absolutely beautiful day out there today (we’re supposed to hit 65 I hear!). It actually smells like spring. I woke up to the sun shining, the birds chirping,

IMG_1832IMG_1833

and a lazy kitty basking in the sunlight. Winking smile

IMG_1834

Don’t worry, we’re back to being on speaking terms. Bribery works wonders. Smile

IMG_1835

I blame the spring-like weather for putting a little extra “spring” in my step, so I got myself ready to head down to the Farmers Market.

Of course, to get to the Farmers Market, I just so happen to pass my favorite coffee shop, so I stopped in for an iced coffee.

IMG_1811

I loooooove me some iced coffee!

IMG_1813

Sure enough, I think a lot of people had the same idea as me this morning because the market was already bustling by the time I got there.

IMG_1820

I love how we have our Farmers Market available all year-round, but I’m really excited for it to finally move back outdoors. Only a couple more weeks!

IMG_1816

I was happy to see that there was even some live music this morning. I think at one point they were singing “Viva Las Vegas,” but without saying Las Vegas. Umm, does that make sense? Confused smile

IMG_1814

Anyways…

I thought this stand set up for Japan Relief was really nice, so I made sure to contribute a little donation. Every little bit helps, right?

IMG_1824

I was a little disappointed in the produce variety at the market today, but there was certainly no shortage of breads and baked goods.

IMG_1815IMG_1817

IMG_1821

“Hi, my name is Courtney, and I’m a carb-aholic.”  Winking smile

IMG_1822

If I had only had a butter knife and some peanut butter, I may have jumped head first into this heap of amazingness. I don’t have a problem…really.

IMG_1823

While I always look forward to trying out new samples while browsing, I encountered quite a doozy today…gelato!

IMG_1819

Gelateria Lisa is actually right down the street from Flavour Café, and now that I know their hours, I mayyy just have to be making a pit stop there sometime soon. Especially after trying a sample of their Raspberries & Crème gelato. It was so good!

IMG_1818

Surprisingly, I left the market without doing too much damage.

IMG_1825

I picked up a loaf of whole wheat bread and a ciabatta roll for Jay (he loves them). I’ve been craving a good panini lately, so now I’ll be able to make some this week with my new loaf of bread.

IMG_1827IMG_1828

I also grabbed a jar of Blizzard Butter, which is actually not for me. Potentially, it COULD be yours…but you’ll have to wait until Monday to find out. Winking smile

IMG_1826

Now, I’m actually headed out to meet up with some of my favorite girls for a lunch date, so I’ll catch ya’ll on the flip side. Winking smile

Question for the Day:

Gelato or ice cream?

    Ice Cream! Well actually preferably frozen yogurt. There is this place near my apartment called 16 Handles that has 16 flavors AND a toppings bar. YUM. Happy Saturday!

    Looks like SUCH a great start to the weekend. I love that they have the market year round too. Although the whole Viva Las Vegas thing is a bit odd. ;)

    Fro yo, gelato, ice cream- love em all. Ice cream wins my heart, nothing beats a bowl of vanilla ice cream. Call me boring but it hits the spot every time!

    It depends on the flavor!! Gelato is the best when eaten in Europe, and the flavors and textures are definitely more unique. BUT...nothing beats cookie dough ice cream!

    omg. how can i choose between gelato or ice cream? i guess if i were out i'd choose gelato just because it's something i don't get to eat all the time. i need to go to a farmer's market. i just can't get up early enough!
