Istanbul Spice Bazaar
As some of you know, I have been traveling for the past 2 weeks. I have been missing my kitchen adventures, but have definitely reaped the benefits of trying new foods abroad! Istanbul was by far a foodie feast, and the whole time I was there I was looking forward to sharing some of the visual treats with you.
The Spice Bazaar was one of my highlights. If I hadn’t been with I group I think I could have spent half a day there, and probably a lot of money too, but I was able to maintain some composure, and just gathered a few special treats and some beautiful photos. I apologize for not having a recipe to share at the moment, but I hope you enjoy the photo tour.

The market was bustling with activity and excitement.

Teas for every occasion and the smells...ahh.

Amazing photos! Now I want to visit!

Great pictures!
