After I sat down for dinner, I realized that almost everything was fresh and local.  Farmer’s Markets rock

So, we spent the day drinking and loving Greene Bean Coffee’s newest edition, Organic El Salvador.  It’s Rainforest Alliance certified and very tasty.  At the Farmer’s Market, we bought heirloom tomatoes, fresh basil, a fresh loaf of French bread, and some bi-colored sweet corn.
I took half of the loaf of French bread and sliced it horizontally.  On each piece, I added a layer of olive oil, kosher salt, and fresh ground black pepper follow by a few slices of tomato.  I topped it off with a heavy sprinkle of finely shreaded mozzarella cheese and stuck it under the broiler until the first hints of brown came out.

That, and some steamed corn.  Massive amounts of Yummy.

Almost local-vore, The olive oil and seasonings are a stretch, but a staple around here.  I guess I cheated on the cheese as there is no local dairy in the county.  There is a great local dairy in Woodward, the Picklet Fence Creamery.  I know they have cheese.  If I was in Perry or Boone, I might have found a local cheese to use.  Still, dinner left me wondering how much of this food was either in plant or ingrediant form, just 24 hours ago.
