I know we often have them at the Carrboro market.

Nasturtiums apparently have a peppery taste and are used in more savory dishes. So not so good here.<br /><br />Allison - It's so great to hear from you! Do you have pictures of the baby dress? I have been doing a little sewing, but mostly bags - I don't do clothes - I'm too nervous about it not fitting. Good call on the transportation. Sam has a Jeep, so I imagine I'll put it in the back, which is flat, and tell him to drive very carefully (the 3 1/2 hours to the beach). Or I will sit in the trunk WITH the cake??Clarehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14892994883241586969noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3808537855083643341.post-8370778440316872552009-04-13T18:44:00.000-05:002009-04-13T18:44:00.000-05:00clare! you are so crafty. i wish we didn't live ...clare! you are so crafty. i wish we didn't live on opposite coasts so we could get together and have a crafty bitches party. (i just finished a dress for my friend's baby that was seriously so cute i didn't want to give it up so i could use it to show people how awesome my crafting skills are. [not]). anyways, i just wanted to offer my advice here since i also offered to make the cake for said baby's baptism/1 year birthday party: think about the transportation factor. my cake was all lopsided from having no one to carry it on their lap on the 45 min. drive to the party location. it was a freaking bitch and i was a nervous wreck trying to drive a stick shift and hold on to it at the same time. good luck!
