Bluegrass Farmers Market

Valentine's Day is only one week away! Do you know what you will be doing special for that extra special person in your life? How about a few suggestions from our Bluegrass Farmers' Market members.

The folks at Bellaire Blooms think their Bouquet Subscription Program/ Bouquet CSA is perfect for Valentine's Day. They are offering 23 weeks of bouquets for $275. The first bouquet will be May 27th and the program continues through October. We think those sweethearts deserve 6 months of fresh flowers! Here is a link where interested parties can read a little more about what they offer. http://www.mkt.com/bellaireblooms And, the good news...the price is payable in two installments!

A quiet evening with wine and cheese by candlelight is always welcome! Try a bottle of award winning wine from Grimes Mill Winery. http://www.grimesmillwinery.com/ Pair that with some wonderful pimento cheese spreads from the folks at JP Foods, LLC. You can find them at all of the local Liquor Barn locations. http://jpfoodsllc.wix.com/jpfoodscheese

Or maybe breakfast in bed is in order! Surprise that loved one with a simple and easy to prepare omelet from the folks at Herb'n Renewal! www.herbnrenewal.com The great part...no messy skillets to clean! Here's the recipe for a crowd...just make what you need!

Have It Your Way Omelet

1.You’ll need a large pot filled with water at a rolling boil.

2. Prepare dishes holding various items that you would include in an omelet, such as chopped onions, peppers, ham, cheese, bacon, tomatoes, mushrooms, etc. Don’t forget to add a bit of seasoning…we like CHEESE’N SEASON, HERB’N COWBOY or CAJUN WING’N SEASON if you like a bit of spice in your life!

3. Have each person write his or her name (with permanent ink) on a quart size freezer zip lock plastic bag.

4. Break two (no more, no less) large or extra large eggs into each bag and give it a good shake so that it is well blended.

5. Now comes the fun…have each person pick and choose the items that they like and just dump them into their egg filled bag!

6. Once they have them loaded, just “zip” the bag closed making sure you get all of the air out of the bag.

7. Place the bags into the boiling water and boil for 13 minutes. You’ll be able to “do” about 6-8 bags in a large pot.

8. After exactly 13 minutes remove the bags and slide out your very own perfect omelet! Great served in a warm flour tortilla!
