Dan and I started our Saturday at the Farmer's Market. We had planned on picking up whatever looked good, and then meeting up with his family for brunch afterwards. However, Dan's brother, Ryan, ended up meeting us at the Farmer's Market, so the boys could pick out some plants for their mom for Mother's Day! They chose raspberries, chocolate mint, orange thyme, nasturtiums, and alpine strawberries. In-between the careful plant selecting, I managed to score the following:
Local, whole-wheat egg pasta, and BASIL!!
After brunch, we stopped at the Franklin Street Bakery, and I picked up a lemon vanilla bean cupcake to be enjoyed later:
Much later on, I made dinner:
Greek salad, artichokes, and pesto covered pasta! I practically licked my plate clean.
Dan and I shared the cupcake for dessert:
And we each added a scoop of mango-banana sorbet on the side. :) Yum.
Off to watch a movie . . . enjoy the rest of the weekend!

Mmmm cupcake and mango sorbet? Delicious!
All these pictures of perfect-looking artichokes makes me hungry for one: Do you steam yours? For how long? I've been scared to try them at home because I don't know how to tell when they're done ...
