A Beautiful Weekend

What beautiful weather we had this weekend!

Since we had spring fever we started out for the farmers market

about 25 minutes away.

I think we were shocked with all the vendors.

Well fist we had a huge homemade donut, no picture we ate it to fast:)

Of course a bottle of NH wine.

There were people who grew mushrooms,baked bread, the had winter veggies,

lots of jams and jellies, and of course maple products. The carrot cake jam

is so good it has a texture more like marmalade, and the maple you sprinkle it on

oatmeal and toast soooo yummmy.

The we went on to concord to shop, first we hit LLBeans and both bought

new winter coats that were 1/2 price at the outlets. So we will be all set for next winter. Then we headed into town

for lunch and a walk. We went through my favorite antiques shop and I didn't buy a thing

I found things I liked but not the prices. Then we went to the Historical society of the state of NH

and went through the museum lots of beautiful things to see and of course I had no camera.

On the ride home we were both tired but agreed it was a really nice day and we should do more of it.

After we got home I made dinner.

We both love onion soup so I tried a short cut

it was good so I will pass it on. I just saute onions in olive oil, and a bit of butter.

 

Added 1/2 cup of white wine and 2 cans of Campbell's onion soup.I scraped up all

the bits on the bottom of the pan.

I took a piece of toasted garlic bread put baby Swiss on the top

put it under the broiler for about 3 minutes success!

I hope you had the beautiful weather we did and we are promised more for the week.

I will enjoy the time change and the good weather.
