So, the potato salad! Our family has an annual father's day BBQ, and I found the perfect use for my garlic scapes! Check out the Garlic Scapes and Potato Salad recipe. It's so delicious, I love dill. (And on that note, if there are any male readers out there... Happy Father's Day!)

Excuse my finger!
As for the majority of the greens, since I'm not much of a cook, I figured, when in doubt, roast!
Would you believe I've never cooked asparagus before? So tasty with olive oil, minced garlic, sea salt and pepper! A perfect accompaniment to pasta.
Yesterday, I went to the Oakville Organic Farmer's Market. So great finds which I will be sharing shortly- I have slowly been buying natural, organic beauty products and the market was no exception!
And a major frustration... at Starbucks today, I watched as they used a disposable cup to measure out the soy milk in my frapp, when I brought in a reusable cold drink mug... from their very store! I actually commented on it to the barista, who informed me the new frapp recipes call for a different measure line than printed on the apparently now-outdated reusable cold mugs. So, my purchase actually wouldn't reduce waste at all! What a sham, cue strongly worded email to Starbucks. I also plan to have the baristas mark the mug with a Sharpie for future reference- I was so disappointed!!
How did you celebrate Father's Day, or whatever you celebrate today?
Namaste, Callah
