I’m not too surprised by this. It seems there is always controversy at Sunset Valley Farmers Market. The Statesmen is reporting that AISD is not renewing the lease on Sunset’s current space and is bumping them down to a strip of dirt on the edge of their property on the side of the freeway.It gets better, at this point we can’t park in the parking lot anymore either.

The First Thing I Cooked
Potato and Leek soup was one of the fist things I ever cooked. I figured, two ingredients, what could go wrong? Well, I neglected to add any salt. It could have been worse, I could have over-salted it. Lesson learned.Since this soup is so simple, I try to make the croutons as special as possible. These were sprinkled with garlic and onion powders and fried in olive oil.
I Cook The Line
Pick a continent, he has traversed it. Pick a food style, he has an opinion on it. If I had to kiss a man… let’s move on. Bottom line, the parent company of the Travel Channel has been purchased the Food Network. So Anthony is back in bed with Emril and the gang. Can’t wait to see how this turns out.
