Editor’s Note: Ellie Markovitch of storycooking.com is back with another seasonal recipe, this time with sorrel. -Christina The weather here is still fighting between late winter and springtime, but last week, I got a taste of Spring from Rebekah Rice’s 9Mile farm green house — a bunch of “azedinha” as we call them in Brazil.

The Ever Versatile {Bean Salad}
{thinking of summer} Last weekend I attended a “planning meeting” for the Ragnar Relay Race New York that I’m running with fellow club member, Amanda, and 10 running friends (that’s a team of 12!). The race is a 200 mile running relay event starting in Bethel, where 12-man teams run day and night, relay style,…
{soup swap} Farmgirl Susan’s Garlic Lover’s White Bean Soup
{Sarah’s soup was so good that I forgot to shoot it until my bowl was almost empty!! -Christina} I love soup. I’ll be the first to admit it. I could eat soup almost every night during the colder months along with a grilled cheese sandwich. It’s a comfort food and so tasty and warm. When…
{soup swap} Bean ‘n Pasta Soup
QUICK, EASY, HEARTY and TASTY… you have to give it a try this winter. Did I mention QUICK…isn’t that music to your ears!

Homemade Hummus
Tortialla chips and hummus is a favorite family snack in our house, and we go through quite alot. I decided it would be easier and cheaper to try my hand at making my own hummus. Turns out it is so incredibly easy to make hummus, I can’t believe all the money we’ve spent on hummus…
Stacked Burrito Pie
Back when I only cooked using a recipe, I used to go to the library to search through cooking magazine’s (I like magazine’s best because they always have picture’s- this helps me). I would usually come home with a few good ideas- but not to many things were kid friendly. So then ding, ding, ding…
