At the Market December 8-11

It's another frosty week, with grey skies and occasional snow. It's time for some home-baked sunshine! Look for it -- and more -- at Local Roots Market:

--Artisan wheat bread
--Baklava
--Basil pesto flatbread
--Cheese-herb artisan bread: cheddar-dill, feta-oregano, Black Swamp Gouda (from Canal Junction Farmstead Cheese) with sage, Miami Erie Canal (Swiss style) with parsley, bleu with rosemary and orange peel and dried cherries
--Cinnamon-pecan bread
--Light rye bread
--Maple oatmeal bread
--Pain aux noix
--Pumpernickel bread
--Rosemary cider bread
--Rosemary walnuts
--Savory apple flatbread
--Sesame thins
--Sunshine cookies
--Zaatar flatbread

This week in the bakery case you'll find:

--On the sweet side, baklava and sunshine cookies

--On the savory side, two kinds of vegetable rolls: kale-parsnip, seasoned with homegrown sage and chopped walnuts toasted in butter; and squash-feta, with butternut squash, onion, rosemary, and tangy feta cheese from Lucky Penny Creamery

--And possibly on Saturday, pear-chèvre rolls with dried pears, pumpkin-spice syrup, and chopped walnuts mixed into creamy goat cheese

Don't forget, this Saturday, December 11, is also Artisan Day at Local Roots -- your chance to find wonderful locally-crafted gifts for the holidays. (That's where I did most of my shopping!) And Saturday at 7:30 PM, the market is also hosting a Holiday Waltz. Be there!

And stay warm!
