I’m slow & haven’t updated in a few weeks, but over the Labor Day wkend I headed to the Farmers Mkt & got stuff to can 2 diff kinds of salsa – original w/ heirloom & reg tomatoes & some w/ the roasted green chile Ben gave me.

I used these great wide-mouth Ball jars & love the tiny pear & grape tomatoes I used. I left them halved so U could see the detail in the jar. )
I just set up mobile blogging on my Crackberry…nothing is off limits now…y’all betta’ watch out! )
Food 'sparks' conversation, debate, excursions, passion, therapy, etc. I love food...cooking it, eating it, serving it. Be it sniffing out a hole-in-the wall place I heard has the best mac n' cheese, or seeking out places while on vacation that I've read about in Bon Appétit - I'm ALL about it. Oh, Sparks also happens to be my last name. So there's where the two marry.
Cooking, dining, foodie'ism, pinching pennies, home decorating, traveling…a bit of everything is here.
Most all of the photos on this blog are taken via my BlackBerry, because I like to blog on the go! Click the pics to enlarge so you can see the full ooey-gooeyness of it all.
