The past two days saw us out doing errands and shopping for a few things I needed in order to meal plan for the week.
The destination Monday was lunch at R&R. We decided this time to try the tortas. Trust me, ours did not look like this.
Tortas are R&R’s contribution to the sandwich trade. OK, but not my favorite. We ate there, crowded in a corner. We had the barbacoa, aka lamb. The lamb was very good, as was the Mexican cheese. Bread a little soggy and not much avocado. We will go back to eating the tacos in the future. You just can’t beat their tortillas.
Before hitting R&R, we stopped at MOM’s to get a few things. That grew, but I did get quite a few local items. They have a larger selection of local items than Roots.
The local haul from MOM’s. These will find their way into my next two local meals.
As for Roots, we hit there Sunday while my hubby had to go to Kendall’s.
Highlights included: sea salt, rosemary crackers, hummingbird farms hydroponic tomatoes (local) and bulk pepitas for salad.
I also picked up some locally baked croutons from Canela Bread to serve with my Bowling Green Farm jalapeno spread.
And organic limes for the mojitos Sunday night. The mint in the mojitos is from my garden pots outside that are already producing.
Yum, mojitos and appetizers on the patio. In March. Love the weather this month.

Those Mojitos look wonderful! You were in my neck of the woods, R & R is good but it hasn’t been as good to me since its airing on Food Network,of course this could be just because it’s no longer a hidden gem,now the world knows about it..lol.. MOM is great to have nearby and I’m looking forward to the opening of Wegmans as well! Farmer’s Market season is almost here and I’m so excited,I’m also planning to try my hand at growing a few things of my own. Thanks for the inspiration,I enjoy reading your posts!
