Tasty Thursdays :: Liberty Market


From the creators of Joe's Real BBQ comes Liberty Market! This amazingly quaint little market is full of delicious treats, from brick oven pizzas to hearty sandwiches and paninis to caprese pasta salad and a fantastic coffee bar. I've only been here twice, but each time I find a new reason to love it.

On both occasions I indulged in the Italia panini with a side of the Caprese Pasta Salad. They are delicious and a perfect compliment to each other. Every time I go, I stare and begin to drool at the three-layer red velvet cake that sits behind the glass and every time I thankfully convince myself that if I ate that much red velvet, I may very well pass out.

Needless to say, you need to venture out to downtown Gilbert to give Liberty Market a try. It's pretty much my new favorite spot. Hats off to you Chef David!

Congratulations to my dear friend Megan for marrying the man of her dreams. Bradley is such a wonderful guy and I couldn't be happier for the both of them. Their wedding was beautiful, so I though I would share some pictures of their big day.

We had so much fun, the ceremony at Brophy Chapel was just gorgeous. From there, we had some time in between the ceremony and the reception so we headed down light rail to Seamus McCaffrey's Pub just off Central Ave. I have decided that all weddings need to incorporate this little extra play time. After we had a few Irish Car Bombs and a Guiness we headed to the beautiful Heard Museum. The cocktail hour was delicious, the dinner was phenomenal, the cake and mini-milk cartons were awesome and we had so much fun dancing the night away to the live band.

Thank you Megan and Bradley for allowing us to share in your special day! You are going to have such a wonderful life together. Now all I have to do is figure out when I'm coming to Georgia! :0)
