I just learned that a sweet woman, who was one of our very first Market Day vendors, passed away a couple of days ago. She called herself Bistro Mama, and later went by Garden Gate.

Jeani, no matter what vendor name she went by, was one of the BEST cooks/chefs/bakers I've ever had the privilege to know. She Baked, Cooked, Preserved and so much more - and always, was so sweet. The customers all loved her and she sold out many weeks.

I know she struggled with her health for several years. She didn't drive - at least not on the freeways, so unless one of her neighbors was coming to markets, she wasn't selling here any more. But we on and off stayed in touch and she even baked up a few batches of things during our pop up markets so long as I could get out to Corsicana to pick them up.

Ciao, my friend. You will surely be missed.

Preserving basil? Saving fresh veggies? Freezing leftovers? I’m short $125 to stay active (we only need to sell $450 over a crawling several months) But your fave farmer will lose her side gig if I don’t sell a little more before the month ends.

So how about some early xmas shopping? 🛍️ You can have it sent direct or to you for filling with treats and wrapping. Take a look at how Tupperware can make your kitchen more efficient and organized. Glass line, looks like glass line but lighter, (I like that!), microwave safe line, freezer safe line, and most everything is dishwasher safe, too. 80years they must be doing something right! Thanks! Lmknif you have any ?’s!

Here comes Fall!

🌧️ Heavy Rain & Scattered Showers… A Strong Fall Cold Front Is Coming! 🍂

The humidity is making a comeback! Dewpoints will surge over the next couple of days, bringing back that muggy feeling, especially Tuesday and Wednesday mornings. Overnight lows in the upper 70s could shatter daily record warm minimum temperatures across North Texas.

🌧️ WEDNESDAY: Heavy rain begins to develop across West Texas ahead of a powerful upper level trough. Areas from Odessa to Lubbock could pick up 3–5 inches of rainfall, with localized flooding becoming a concern.

⛈️ THURSDAY: The axis of heaviest rainfall shifts only slightly eastward, with some of our northwestern counties potentially picking up 1–2 inches. For much of the DFW Metroplex and the rest of North Texas, rain chances look more scattered, with around 30% coverage. Not everyone will see rain.

💨 FRIDAY: Here comes the big change! A strong cold front arrives Friday morning, bringing gusty winds and a drop in temperatures. In fact, Friday’s high temperature may occur shortly after midnight! Afternoon temperatures could remain in the 60s as cooler air continues pouring into North Texas.

☀️ SATURDAY: Sunshine returns as skies clear and the cooler, drier air settles in. A beautiful Fall day is on tap! Highs 67 - 71.

🍂 SUNDAY MORNING: This could be our coolest morning of the season so far! Clear skies, lighter winds and a much drier air mass will allow temperatures to tumble into the 40s across much of North Texas.

From muggy mornings in the upper 70s to crisp fall morning in the 40s in just a matter of days!

Fall is about to make its presence felt across North Texas! 🍁
