The Ugly Tomato

The Ugly Tomato: what I often hear heirlooms called. What do I think? They are some of the best dirt candy you can find at your farmer's market during the summer. How can you not smile at the crazy colors, shapes and sizes of these awesome tomatoes. 

I decided to make a pizza using some leftover green heirlooms as well as the famous green, kale, to make a delicious summer market flatbread. 

So the next time you are at the market, collect a variety of veggies and make a veggie collage on your pizza--a delicious creation that you won't be able to resist. 


Stone Hollow Farms Part 1

Weekends in Birmingham have led to excursions and explorations of the deep South. Stone Hollow Farms in Harpersville, AL is one of my favorite Saturday afternoon adventures. Stone Hollow Farms is run by Deb Stone and her family. Their delicious creation: gourmet goat cheese. What do they do with that goat cheese: sell it, of course, but also supply it to local restaurants including their own called The Pantry. 

Stone Hollow is one beautiful place--we went out a few weekends ago to scout for a future photo shoot we are planning in a couple of weeks...take a peek :)
