It was a nice surprise to find organic raspberries for $1 a basket! Hence, the flat! I don’t have an immediate use for them so most are going to be frozen to use for baking down the road. Om nom nom. Valencia oranges Yellow peaches Nectarines Raspberries! Nothing terribly exciting in the veggie department. Didn’t…

Sometimes I am blown away at the prices I find at the farmers market. Take the green beans, for example. That’s over 2 1/2 pounds of green beans. How much did I pay for them? $1. Yep, 1 dollar. They aren’t old either. Now I’m not quite sure what I am going to do with…
