Menu for week of 05/11/09:



Spring Greens Soup:  Fresh asparagus, fiddleheads, and local wild leeks prepared with parsley, sunflower oil, water, butter, milk, lemon juice, coriander, salt & pepper.  Great hot or cold!
Herb-Chevre Dressing and Fresh Salsa: (Refer to previous weeks description)
Spanakopita: (Available later in the week, time permitting.)
Thursday Flatbread: Plain cheese.
Bakery: Coconutty Chocolate Chip Cookies!  And, if you come in soon, you may be lucky enough to find a couple remaining chocolate mini-cupcakes (see photo above) - they go quickly when they are out, so I can't make promises.


Also, we have plenty of local greens now available, beautiful shitake mushrooms and quite a selection of local cheeses. If you have not already tried Riley's Coat by Blue Ledge Farm, this is a delicious hard goat's milk cheese and tastes great on a simple cracker.  Another wonderful selection is Orb Weaver's Farmhouse Cheese - mild and creamy - a favorite with our regular customers!
