During my latest trip to Headhouse’s Sunday market, I felt the presence of all four seasons around me. Spring was in the air on this 70 degree morning… Summer was still holding on through some gorgeous heirloom tomatoes… Winter even made an early appearance in the form of chestnuts… But, alas, Fall stole the show.

Tempo Tuesday
Posted in Dinner, Farmers' Market Challenge, Marathon, Market Meals, Pizza, Recipe, Training on September 16, 2010 | 2 Comments »
I’m now 90% convinced pull-back weeks in marathon training are necessary. The other 10% will come if I can successfully complete 16 miles on Friday. My confidence in the pull-back week comes from the fact that my past three runs have been some of my fastest yet. Here’s the recap: Friday, 5 miles: 9:20 pace [...]
Zucchini ‘Linguine’
Posted in Dinner, Market Meals, Recipe on August 13, 2010 | 1 Comment »
Ever wonder how you can turn two of these… …into this??? No? Me either. That is, until I was left with two lone zucchini, a handful of cherry tomatoes and a block of ‘I-need-to-be-used-asap’ Parmesan cheese. Let me explain. I knew I was heading to the beach for the weekend, so I never re-stocked my [...]

The Good: getting my 8 mile ‘long run’ out of the way before the weekend running with a friend in Philly along the river (I’ll join you any other time before 9am!) leaving time for an hour of tennis tomorrow morning due to doing my long run today finally learning that running in the summer [...]

The New York Times recently wrote an article entitled “Now, Chefs Court Farmers for the Best Ingredients.” The article is about how Jonathan Benno – the former chef de cuisine at Per Se – will use local ingredients from specialty farms in NY, NJ, CT and PA at his new restaurant at Lincoln Center in [...]
Melted Brie Never Disappoints

I went to Headhouse on Sunday for one reason only – to get the brie melt from the Renaissance Sausage Truck. (You can read about my last trip to Headhouse here.) If there is ever a time for melted brie, it’s the morning after running 17 miles I thought I was coming for brie [...]
A Farm Fresh Frittata
Posted in Dinner, Farmers' Market Challenge, Market Meals, Recipe on May 28, 2010 | 8 Comments »
My infatuation with farm fresh eggs stemmed from reading various other blogs who praised their bright yellow yolk, fluffy texture and better taste. It deepened when I read that they actually hold more nutrients, including more vitamin A, omega-3 fatty acids, vitamin E and beta-carotene. Maybe it has something to do with the fact that [...]
A Day of Market Eats
Posted in Breakfast, Dinner, Lunch, Market Meals on May 18, 2010 | 3 Comments »
I woke up this morning excited for all the ways I could incorporate yesterday’s buys into my meals today. I started off with overnight oats, which I learned about from Kath’s blog here.
