Five courses. One Farmers Market. Tonight we celebrated 40 years of horticulture day with Iowa Public radio with special guests Charity, Katherine, Chase & Aaron.

No recipes just fresh Iowa vegetables. Thank you to all that supported this great event! And to our amazing Team at The Recipe!

Stick around to the end. 😂 Mindy got some leftovers.

Doesn’t happen that often that I’m on the line teaching a class but had a blast teaching our Olivelle Olive Oil & Balsamic Vinegar workshop last night! It is easy to teach when the quality speaks for itself! We sampled a variety of my personal favorites! To learn more, check out our tasting table inside Cooks’ Emporium!

Tonight! Pasta 101 but with a sweet corn cream sauce because it’s corn season, yum!
