I began this month thinking that I would post recipes using fresh local fruits and vegetables from my area. It seems as though I’m stuck on the fruits.

I was pleasantly surprised, well it was more like totally excited when Ryan, over at Ryan Bakes http://www.ryanbakes.com/ held a giveaway for one of her favorite cookbooks and I won!
