This blog post is a tribute to my new hometown Charleston, South Carolina. Since the terrible tragedy that struck the Emanuel AME Church, nothing but love and support has poured in for this community and everyone from across the U.S. to even local businesses have stepped up to help raise money for this community and help this grieving city.  One business took to their cupcakes and made a signature item with all the proceeds going towards the Mother Emanuel Hope Fund. The Charleston Love cupcake is your choice of a vanilla or chocolate cupcake topped with a vanilla/chocolate swirl buttercream. Finally it is topped with a little heart too show their love for Charleston.  This local joint is located at 433 King Street and is one that you do not want to miss and can satisfy anyone's sweet tooth. But don't worry, they have loads of other flavors as well!  Their cupcakes are baked fresh daily and are made from the finest ingredients like vanilla bean, sweet butter...

Now typically this post would be about a recipe from my own kitchen, but this post is taking a different direction today. Typically you go to the store, buy the ingredients you need and prepare an amazing meal, well lets take store bought ingredients out of the picture and head to the farmers market. Yes the farmers market, where everything is home grown and brought to you fresh! I mean anyone who loves to cook would choose fresh fruits and veggies to cook with any day. I love walking around a farmers market and seeing all the locally grown fruits and veggies that many stands have to offer, but I also love seeing fresh foods like po'boys, beignets and iced teas.
