New Year's Resolution: Eat more pastries! Chances are, your New Year's Resolution isn't to eat more pastries. But maybe it should be! Especially if it's a profiterole, the tiny twee cousin of the éclair. The origins of this dessert are lost to history, but you can be sure the French were involved. These bite-sized bundles of choux pastry filled with sweet cream are the newest creations to grace the Weaver Street Bakery counters, and they deserve more than a passing glance on your way to the gym.

| Green Lawn Care | |||
Last year the Farm Fairy introduced "The Farm Fairy @ Your Backyard," planting raised bed gardens for folks too busy to set up a garden, who still wanted to reap the rewards of home-grown produce.(Read more about the program here.)They also debuted their portable chicken coops—perfect for the urban flock! (Read more here.) Now they've done it again: 2009 is the inaugural year for "For a Green Footprint" their green lawn care program. Using solar-powered machines, they'll take care of your yard quietly and without emissions! Traditional gas-powered lawn mowers are responsible for 5 percent of the nation's air pollution, according to the Environmental Protection Agency; you can help the environment by hiring a lawn care service that uses environmentally friendly lawn mowers. (Read more about the Farm Fairy's program here.) Look for the Farm Fairy selling their homemade jellies, breads, and other treats at the Hillsborough Farmers' Market (now in the Home Depot parking lot, on the 1st and 3rd Saturdays) and at the South Estes Farmers' Market (inside University Mall for the winter). |
