I saw that Frederick Wine House is pouring Riondo Prosecco Saturday, December 12th from 1 p.m. to 7 p.m. as part of their complimentary tasting. This is one of the Proseccos we consistently go [...]

Odds and Ends
Just received word that the magazine Edible Chesapeake is ceasing publication. That’s sad as I always looked for it at the Common Market and enjoyed reading it. From the release:
I will no longer be publishing Edible Chesapeake magazine. The decision is the result of much reflection on how best to balance the needs of my family and [...]

Farmer’s Market Finale
I don’t blog too much about my favorite farmer’s market, the West Frederick Farmer’s Market. Not because I don’t love it, but because the blog Grown In Frederick (a long time resident of my links list), does such a good job. You should check it out. The market’s last day is next Saturday, but since I [...]

They are going to move to a location in the new shopping center off Route 26. This will be the same location as where the Wegmans is going in. Construction [...]

Brunswick Farmers Market
The Brunswick farmer’s market is now being held on Wednesdays from 4-7 p.m. This is a change from last year. The location is the same, but I haven’t had a chance to go this year so no current reports on it. Here are my comments from last year. Anyone else been this year and care to comment?

Truffles
The candy kind I mean. You may remember that I had complained back before Christmas about the Candy Kitchen. They seemed in disarray and tired. However, last week I was out stretching my legs and stopped by. Looking around I saw a lot of new candy and noticed that they had reworked their truffles. There were lots [...]

Odds & Ends
Frederick Wine House is now on twitter. Their handle/user name/id/ whatever you call it (you can tell I’m not hip with Twitter) is FrederickWineHouse. In the email they sent they listed it as FredWineHo. What an awesome name. It’s a shame I didn’t think of that. Maybe I’ll start a spin off blog for just [...]
