To Market, To Market To Buy A Fat Pig


Summer is officially here and so are the local farmer's markets. And judging by the number of markets in the area and the number of people who are at them every week, they are more popular than ever. Who can resist all of the fresh fruit and vegetables. Not to mention the baked goods!

The hardest part, though, is figuring out what to do with all of that wonderful, fresh food. To help everyone out, here are some cookbooks from the library and several websites with shopping and cooking tips. Enjoy!
