Hello Fellow Foodies and Fitness Fanatics!

Today I was a combination of my two favourite things: Fitness and FOOD! Best day ever? Definitely a possibility. I spent the morning at Brooklyn Bodyburn (my lower body is still twitching and I know I am going to be SORE tomorrow) and then headed to Queens for the Winter Food Market at Sac’s Place. The event was crowded but fun…it seems that every Queens event I attend is full, I guess people in Queens love their borough’s events, and rightly so! There weren’t too many vendors at the market but it functioned as a good thing because you could spend time with each booth. The event was fun, well-attended and provided delicious local snacks to wrap-up your weekend. Here are some shots from the event:

Locavores delight!

YUM! Best sweet and savoury condiments served by Mel, who can be found here. My favourite was the Mild & Mellow…it has low-salt and low-sugar and tastes perfect.

Treat time! Here’s an almond cookie from Veda, owner of Cakes for All Occasions. This cookie was moist, buttery and totally decadent.

Okay, full disclosure, THIS was my favourite booth of the market. Peartree Pantry has only recently launched but oh my goodness, their product is good! It is spicy, flavourful and filling…oh AND it’s vegan and gluten-free. Praise!

The genius behind Peartree Pantry. They were so kind and I hope to do a full feature on them soon.

What looks most appetizing to you? Did you attend a market today? What’s your go-to weekend snack?

I’m off to relax and even further enjoy this lovely Sunday!
