Dallas Farmer’s Market Find #2: So, it’s officially winter. I’m sorry I ever complained about 120 degree days! I’ll take it and be happy, I promise. Just bring it back! The temperature in Enid somehow dropped 50 degrees in a week and now it’s a frosty 60 degrees here. So summer tomatoes are a little…
Easy Homemade Pickles
Dallas Farmer’s Market Find #1: As I mentioned briefly yesterday, Nick and I spent the long weekend in Dallas. We did some relaxing, a little shopping, and a LOT of eating. I’m sure that surprises no one. You know how much I complain about food and restaurants in Enid… since we were in a real…
