building baskets, rebuilding lives
Love when we stumble upon something really special, like the Bhutan Baskets found this morning at the Morningside Farmers’ Market. These one-of-a-kind, rough beauties — made from kudzu, bamboo and local vine — are created by Bhutanese natives who have resettled in Atlanta after spending nearly two decades in the U.N.-run refugee camps in Nepal.
What a wonderful gift idea this season. We gave one to our farm.

cranberry glazed salmon
For those of you who tried our Best. Salmon. Ever. recipe, here’s our second best favorite. Actually, it’s probably Adrian’s top choice. So easy and perfect for this time of year. And it takes all of 15 minutes to make. Hope you like.
Cranberry Glazed Salmon
Ingredients:
1 can (14 oz.) whole-berry cranberry sauce
1/4 cup honey
1/4 cup light soy sauce
2 minced garlic cloves
1 tablespoon minced fresh ginger (or just a pinch of dried)
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground pepper
4-5 skinless salmon fillets
To Make:
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. In medium bowl, combine cranberry sauce, honey, soy sauce, garlic, ginger and pepper. Place salmon in lightly oiled baking dish. Spoon cranberry mixture over fillets. Bake 15-20 minutes or until salmon is cooked through and flakes when tested with a fork. Goes great with garlicky green beans and rice.
