We’ve reached the end of the season my friends! And by that I don’t mean we’ve done our last CSA delivery. No no, that happened a couple weeks ago.

Tomato Pie with Brown Buttered Garlic & Shallots
Sweet sweet tomato pie. The most decadent summer treat. I can hardly believe I’ve made it through three weeks of tomato season without making this yet, but it felt right to devour cherry tomatoes raw by the handful and get my fill of tomato toast (for every meal of the day) first. But now, we’ve…
The Past Seven Days + RECIPE: Roasted Pepper & Cherry Tomato Panzanella
Our fields have been a bustling place this past week with more people stopping by in the span of a couple days than we usually get out here in a full season. Since last Wednesday, we have hosted a film crew*, a beautiful group of seven women, and a major fundraising dinner with 100 guests. An…

These Gray Days + RECIPE: Caramelized Shallot Dip
Boy oh boy has it ever been gloomy here in my beautiful home state of Wisconsin. Honestly, since we returned home from Maui a little over a month ago I would guess that 95% of my waking hours have been under cloudy skies and it seems like pretty much everyone in my life is handling…
Spring Has Arrived + RECIPE: One Pot Green Curry
Well it’s here. Spring has finally officially arrived in full force and I’ve dove straight into my spring routine. I’m averaging six podcasts a day (thanks Conde Nast Traveler and Girlboss Radio for the constant stream of amazing information), showering only once or twice a week, and ending most days with a glass of wine….
Our Rhubarb Patch + RECIPE: Brussels Sprouts with Harissa & Pickled Shallots
I spent most of my day Thursday in the dirt and god damn did it feel good. My leg muscles are burning. My nails have soil lodged under them. My wedding ring is a little less shiny than it was before and there is the tiniest bit of color and life back in my cheeks….
Hard Questions + RECIPE: Cheesy Butternut Squash & Caramelized Shallot Biscuits
I feel like the weight of the world has been lifted off my shoulders. Ever since my Carrot and I returned from our little farm retreat a couple weeks ago, my steps have been so much lighter. It turns out I haven’t really been sharing all that’s been on my mind over these past 7…
Hunting Widow + RECIPE: Roasted Cauliflower with Brown Butter, Shallots & Parmesan
You guys this is embarrassing. So my Carrot left for the weekend to hunt deer at his parents’ home over in the beautiful woods and rolling hills of Richland Center. We women in Wisconsin who are all too used to this inaugural opening day of deer hunting season when we are left to our own…
Tomato Season + RECIPE: Tomato Balsamic Jam over Caramelized Shallot & Leek Biscuits with Sage Honey Butter
Never in a bazillion years did I ever think I’d be saying this, but tomato season is just too. damn. short! I mean I only started popping sungolds in my mouth for the first time seven weeks ago and now they likely only have a couple weeks left! Two months of tomatoes?! That is just…
