I'm just amazed you shop at a farmer's market. Never been. Sounds all healthy and stuff. Can't have any of that. But I'd go for the pictures. You know I'm all about taking pictures of my food.

And yea for DrowseyMonkey on her first birthday! Par-TAY!

We had those weird looking onions at the grocery store, but they were just thrown in with the purple onions. I did not, however, have the presence of mind to take a picture *grin*

You say it's not okay, but you did it twice, so since you did it, is it okay? I really really really want to take pictures at my farmers market! Like, really bad.

I frequent the farmers markets and I've never been shoved. Were you there right before closing time? I was enamoured with the pics of the onions and the squash blossoms..wish I would've taken them.
Lovely, wonderful, mouth-watering photos. But then, I do cook.

You have a very sophisticated, yet violent, farmer's market! I think I'm too hillbilly for it.
Kirsten | Homepage | 08.02.08 - 11:43 am | #

I envy you your farmer's market. We did have one, but it was so poorly organized that it closed up shop. Now there are just random places along the road to pick out a few vegetables or fruit. Harumph.

Never ealized a farmer's market could be so eventful.

I don't know, what do they call that underpass/frwy place now? They had avacados? They didn't at the EG farmers market. I've taken pics at the farmers market before. Of course there was a firetruck involved and firemen. Woooh Wooooh!

My wife has a great recipe for squash blossoms stuffed with cheese, breaded, and deep fried. Mmmmmm! But very very messy!

I wish I had taken photos of the Portland Farmers Markets...the flowers were wonderful and it was just one of those fabulous places.

Hi Margaret - I reckon one day somebody at the Farmers Market is going to start charging you for taking photos .... Can't say I ever remember to take my camera when I go shopping. Hahahaha

Those torpedo onions look scary - wow imagine how much crying you'll do when you peel those buggers ....

I have those flower thingies ... don't have a bloody clue as to what to do with them!

5 for $1 or $1 a bag.
How big are the bags, exactly?
Orion | Homepage | 08.04.08 - 9:06 am | #

I was just scrolling down to ask the same question. Its almost like $1.00 a bag is for the smart foodies and 5 for $1.00 is for the poseurs.

Hi
Thanks for visiting my site! I like this piece about scary combative names for veg. When we lived in the UK they called wax turnips "Swedes" do you think that is because they battled them, or because they turned the Swedes into a turnip mash?
