| Time to Get in the Kitchen . . . ! It’s definitely time to get into the kitchen, especially if you’ve been reluctant to turn on the heat. Why not make something that will warm you up from the inside and out? We have your traditional selection of root vegetables here in the produce department, and I don’t want y’all to be afraid of them! Celery root may LOOK like an alien, but it is quite delicious. Root veggies have a downward, grounding energy that actually warms you when you eat them. They're the right thing to do in the winter. You probably won’t crave much salad, cukes, or melons in the cold season; and I'm definitely not saying don’t eat salad all winter, just have the warming stuff for balance. More |

| Recipe |
Local chef and cooking instructor, Caroleena, resided in the center of Florence and in the province of Tuscany for ten years where she learned regional cooking from the masters: restaurant owners, farmers, family and friends. She owned Ristorante Vien under the Volta dei Peruzzi in Florence for four years. Caroleena cracks the mysterious code of Tuscan cooking and translates her very special language into easy, delicious and healthy recipes. Caroleena is available to cook for you in your home. Call her at 960-8875.Roasted Root Vegetables Buon Giorno and Welcome to Tips and Recipes from Caroleena’s Tuscan Kitchen This goes nicely with a holiday dish because there are so many vegetables involved that in the end, you wind up with a lot of food! First of all, preheat the oven to 350 degrees. If you cut all of these vegetables up into pieces that are about 2 inches, you will come up with a nice consistency. Ingredients: Onions Sweet potatoes White potatoes Pumpkin or other winter squash Fennel bulbs Carrots Extra virgin olive oil SPIKE all-purpose seasoning Put all of the cut vegetables in a bowl with some extra virgin olive oil and the SPIKE. Coat everything by rolling the vegetables around. Pour them into a large baking tray and cook for about an hour. Then turn the vegetables so they come out crispy but cooked. We don’t want them mushy, so don’t handle them a whole lot, just cook them as long as you have to (about an hour and a half). I have a gas oven, so I put them directly on the oven floor right on the heat. This way I can cook other things on other shelves. Comfort food that is good for you. It doesn’t get any better. Buon Appetito! Don’t forget Always cook with love and don’t be cheap! |

| It's Owners' Month! |
Every October, in conjunction with National Cooperative Month, Weaver Street Market holds elections for our Board of Directors and celebrates our cooperative structure with specials and events in the stores, and our Annual Meeting on Sunday, November 5.
Cooperatives generate over $229 billion in revenues annually, employ more than half a million Americans, and because they are owned locally, what's spent there stays there, benefiting communities again and again. The Annual Meeting will include free lunch for all owners of the co-op, a meet and greet with the candidates for the Board of Directors, a state of the co-op address from the General Manager, and the awards for the first annual Cooperative Community Fund grants. Shopping at local stores keeps money in the community. Why not join the co-op now and take advantage of extra special deals and events this month? |
