This food stuff is great!
We had a nice turnout on Sunday at the Mountain View Farmer’s Market (and apparently a couple near misses – sorry to those we didn’t get to chat with). Kendra and I were there handing out recipes and answering questions, as well as getting awesome insights from other challengers. While the morning started out kind of cold and foggy, we were blessed with nice sunny morning to walk around and pick up delicious produce other well-sourced foods. For those that were present, what did you pick up? Any new and exciting ingredients that you are looking forward to trying? If so, please share those in the comments! I bought two new foods that I am very excited to try – ground goat meat and yucca – stay tuned for pictures and recipe for how I prepared these.
Additionally, we have had some great looking food pictures from clients near and far (we have a couple correspondent challengers from at least as far as Chicago!) Without further delay, here are those great photos. Hopefully they will get you thinking about other foods and combinations you can try.

How are we doing otherwise, everybody? We are now a full 2 weeks into the challenge. What has been the hardest part/easiest part? Any foods you thought you “didn’t like” that you now can’t get enough of? Any new favorite cooking methods? Are we remembering to spice our dishes so that they are exciting and tasty?
