Farm to Table Foodie Apple Video and Recipes

Wow! I have been super neglecting this blog lately. So many things going on and trying to edit the Apple Video was one of them. It is finally complete! Check it out! Just click HERE !

See the recipe below!

FYI....I am setting the wheels in motion for a possible move back to Santa Cruz by early next year. Who knows what that will look like or when it will happen but I am very excited about it. So much to pursue there and I am ready to make a place my home.

In "Farm to Table Foodie" news, I will be hopefully shooting a piece on pumpkins in the next week or two so be ready for the video and a great recipe in a few weeks. Hope you are all having a beautiful fall and enjoying the yummy harvest foods. Feel free to drop me an email if you need any ideas for your latest Farmer's Market pickup or you just want to say hi!
