Wow. Just love Wednesdays! At 3 pm I hustle on over to my farmer’s place, and scurry up her driveway to see what delish-us-nuss awaits me. This week: Idaho Potato Chowder made with organic red Idaho spuds, organic onions, magic garlic and other good stuff. (A lot of these items were grown at my CSA garden this summer.) Then, I peek in the cooler, and there, in a big brown bag with my name on it, is the bread of the week. Today’s treasure trove: whole wheat rolls with herbs. Man, it doesn’t get any better than this. The rolls are glazed on top and soft and chewy inside. Last time, the bread had the smallest amount of salt on the crust making for the most savory little surprise. Every week something new and different. I start ripping and eating pieces of the fragrant bread loaves or rolls before I have the car in gear.
Wednesday’s: homemade soup and bread every week for 12 weeks. I wish the baker would try her hand at cinnamon rolls. I would just have to sit in their driveway til I ate every one.

okay, I’m movin’ to Boise. You folks know how to live and live well….and the salt on top? My mouth is watering. What’s for dinner here? I’m cheating. Ordering a pizza for the boys and slicing farmer’s market organic tomatoes for the top. Life’s a bit of a compromise in my house. But we try. xoxdkp

Wow, Mary Ann, I can’t even eat wheat, but I want those rolls! For dinner, we ate out at one of the many local Mexican restaurants. I’m babysitting my nephew today and tomorrow while his parents go out of town, so I’ll be cooking tonight.
But, I want potato chowder . . . .
