Pop-Up Farmer's Markets with Country Table

Have you guys heard about pop-up farmer's markets yet?  It is such a cool idea, and a great way for everyone to be able to get farm fresh food!  The ladies at Country Table, Kallie and Lauren, are doing it right!  You might remember me talking about them before when I interviewed them, here!  They are literally popping up all over the city, making it super easy for anyone to stop by on their lunch break, on their way to or from work, or for moms with kids that need to get in and out!  It's quick and painless shopping and the best part is you have direct access to healthy and fresh food to feed your family!

For me, I love that if I can't make it to my normal farmer's market on Saturday, there is another option for me to pick up some fresh ingredients!  I recently stopped by one of Country Table's pop-up markets and had such a great time!  Not only were they there, but The Big Squeezy (a local juicery) and POPCulture POPs (local and delicious popsicles made with fresh ingredients) were also there selling their delicious products!

Salted and Frosty Watermelon Margaritas

It's Friday and it is raining, like pouring let's just take a nap all day kind of raining.  And it looks like it is going to the whole weekend here in Louisiana.  If I wasn't already itching for a beach vacation, I am definitely wanting one now.  White sands, blue water, tan toes, my man by my side, and a salted and frosty watermelon margarita...

There is good news here y'all, I just so happened to make a batch of watermelon margaritas...a little sunshine on a rainy day in my book.  These cocktails should be the official drink of the summer.  They are the perfect balance of refreshing, tangy, and sweet with a kick from tequila, which is never a bad thing!

It's perfect for that extra watermelon that you have cut up in the fridge, or if you happen to get a watermelon that isn't perfect when you cut it open, throw it in the blender!  This drink doesn't discriminate against imperfections!

A drink to trick you into thinking you are on vacation...a sip of sunny rays!  Or if you are somewhere sunny and gorgeous this weekend, I'm jealous, but nevertheless this drink would be perfect poolside or with your toes in the sand!
