Savoring Summer
This past weekend our friends Max & Joanna invited us to the Hamptons for a little getaway, and to bid our final farewells to Summer. We never got out our swimsuits, but instead our sweatshirts, and embraced the crisp autumn air and traces of campfire smoke.
On our way out we stopped at one of the many farm stands and stocked up on fresh sweet corn. As soon as we got home we ate the first couple of ears with butter and black truffle salt. Delicious. The remainder of the corn I combined with ingredients from the Union Square Farmers Market and made a Corn Chowder with homemade bacon bits. It may have been the first homemade soup of Fall, but it still had all the flavors of a beautiful Summer.

Your soup looks so delicious! I recently made a corn chowder using ingredients from our local farm market. We'll have to share recipes.
