A Little Bit of Inspiring Food...

I have a few links to share today that I have come across in my hours and hours of blog reading ;)

This cute little video had me craving a treat from a real French bakery today...see it here!

(Once upon a time I really did eat many chocolate croissants in France!)

I stumbled upon this website of photographer, Nicole Franzen. I sat looking at her photos with my mouth hanging open, they are so incredible! I'd also like to eat at the places she photographed, especially the first picture...

La Tartine Gourmande food blog pretty much takes the cake...sorry. I am bookmarking a ton of her recipes to try if I can, they all look so delicious, fresh and delicate, and again, French! Her baking makes our Canadian recipes look so heavy and bulky (cough*Company's Coming*cough). Take a look at La Tartine Gourmande, even if it's just to admire her beautiful photography and dreamy life in France :) She even has her own cookbook...!

And finally, I just started reading the blog Hither & Thither. She posted about the New Amsterdam Dairy Market in New York, and it looks amazing. It makes me excited to get out to our own Farmer's Markets here in Edmonton...although ours don't even come close to this one, I still can't wait to get fresh local produce and hang out in the market crowds. Okay I actually hate crowds, but I'm sure the excitement of our first trip to an outdoor market either downtown or in St.Albert will make it alright!

P.S. She also posted about the Renegade Craft Fair in Brooklyn and I wish I could be there right now! Was it already a year ago that we were there? Obviously we need to come during market season...
