Sighn Farms

You'd think from this title that there will be pictures with a farm to follow, right? ... Um, yeah... about that...

This past weekend my sister, mom, and I got together to go to a place here in Phoenix called Sighn Farms. We were hoping to buy flats of tomatoes to try our hand at canning, but it turns out this farm doesn't sell produce quite on that scale. It's more of a garden, really. They did have some delicious looking fresh produce, jams, herbs, and jars of spice blends though. This is what I wore for our lovely little outing.

(Shorts, shirt, and lace vest came from Name Brand Exchange, the shoes came from Payless.
Excluding jewelry, this whole outfit was under $40!)

When I put this outfit together for the event, I had an image in mind of roaming through rows of garden plants, snapping a picture here and there. This outfit was seriously perfect for the day. The weather was hot, but not too hot. I was super comfortable in these wool shorts and the whole thing fit the setting perfectly. Things don't always go quite as planned, though...

Among all the delicious looking things previously mentioned were some samples of dips and a really fresh looking salad. I didn't notice when looking at the samples, but it turns out one that I tasted had cashews in it. I'm allergic to cashews. So there ya go.

Instead of taking pictures I took Benadryl. And a very long nap. Bummer.

I still had a really nice day with my sis and mama though. I can't wait to go back sometime and skip the whole allergic reaction thing. How 'bout I take pictures that day instead? Sound like a deal, my friends?

Why yes, I think that's a deal :)
