5 Reasons to Shop at Your Local Farmer’s Market

Along with ice cream and the beach, shopping the Farmer’s Market on the weekend is one of my absolute favorite things to do in the summer! My sister and I always go to the the Atwater Village Farmer’s market in LA (I spend a lot of my summers there) and often visit the same vendors over and over. We load up on fresh produce, freshly hatched eggs and eat lots yummy snacks along the way like homemade pupusas with agua fresca, freshly popped kettle corn.

A while back I worked on a project for a young couple who hired me to redesign their two-bedroom apartment. (You can see more of that project here.) The apartment’s smaller bedroom was occupied by their adorable toddler son who loved dinosaurs and was finally ready for a big boy room. But, a couple of months into the project, the family learned they were expecting baby #2! How exciting!

I used to be one of those people who never ate breakfast but lately I’ve been making it a point to consume something every morning, whether it’s just a smoothie, a piece of fruit or a more filling meal which is usually reserved for the weekends. Because I have no time to be cooking or cleaning on a typical weekday morning, my thing is that my breakfasts need to take 5 minutes or less to make. One of my favorites is a simple fruit salad kicked up a notch with a blend of super seeds sprinkled on top for added …
