Functional to frivolous

HOMEGROWN HAPPY

TAKE: 1 part early morning, 2 parts locally roasted coffee
ADD: A pinch of gnarling stomach
MIX: Until thoroughly blended
COMBINE: Foot-tapping music from Sweetwater Station (or substitute the Motones), all kinds of faces, and the buzz of voices.
ADD: A well-chosen homemade goodie, a basketful of local produce, a random conversation with a new friend.
STIR IN: A dash of local garden lore.
WARM: For 30-60 minutes under the high desert sun.
GARNISH: With one piece of handmade whimsy or bundle of flowers.
SHARE: With a friend and save the leftovers to enjoy all week long.
