Nothing too exciting to report this week. Once again I didn’t make time to plan anything for next week so I just kind of went with the usual. No fruit this week due to an abundance of bananas and strawberries… it kind of feels incredibly wrong buying strawberries at this time of year but dang…

Farmers Market 2/14/13
Not much to report from the market today. Didn’t really get much of a game plan for the next week so I stocked up on some staples and few items that are workable. Been using a lot more kale so I decided to buy 2 bunches instead of 1 for the week. We’ll see how…
Farmers Market 1/31/13
While I continue to get caught up on things here is the farmers market haul from last week. I went light on veggies simply because I didn’t get a chance to plan meals for the week. Which is sometimes good because it forces me to get a bit creative use up everything. I found some…
Farmers Market 1/17/13
Another week of January is gone and another trip to the market is done. I probably shouldn’t have bought more fruit as I think I still have enough to get through another week. But I want to experiment more this year with all the citrus. Specifically blood oranges. They may not be as sweet as…
Farmers Market 11/15/12
While there is technically several more market days before thanksgiving, this is my final market before thanksgiving. Not that it matters that much given that I am not preparing the Thanksgiving meal and am instead brining a casserole that is full of stuff you don’t get at the farmers market. I was kind of amazed…
Farmers Market 11/1/12
Back at the market this week. I didn’t go last week because I felt like I had just enough produce to get through another week. It was a creative stretch but I think we fared okay. I’m not sure if the expense evens out over the weeks or not but I definitely spent more than…
Farmers Market 10/11/12
Going to be short and to the point today as I should be making dinner right now instead of doing a blog post. Been a busy day but still managed to get to the market. Sorry the pics are so bad… I was in a rush and was too lazy to change lenses… the 35…
Farmers Market 10/4/12
No more raspberries at the market this week. Kind of wish I would have bought two flats last week rather than one. But I did get a great price on strawberries! Six bucks for half flat of organic/incredibly still sweet strawberries! Half of the flat has already been cleaned and chopped into small pieces and…
Farmers Market 9/13/12
Back to our regularly scheduled program today! After any time away, even if it is just two weeks, it is really fascinating to see how the season is moving along. Grapes are every where in the market now. Cherry tomatoes are gone, but the price of heirlooms are starting to come down. The big fruit…
Farmers Market 8/23/12
One too many days late, but I did make it to the market last Thursday and was able to take some photos but time hasn’t allowed me to get the post up till now… Monday, the following week. This week I intended to buy a honeydew melon but only found ginormous melons. Like way too…
Farmers Market 8/9/12
I’ve noticed over the last couple of months that there seems to be some kind of correlation between the number of people at the market and the sunshine. I’d say there was about half the amount of people this morning than there was last week. And yes, the sun was shining last week… this morning,…
Farmers Market 2/23/12
Thursday was such a bright and abundant day at the market. I truly do think it was due to the sun shining. The highlight was finding these awesome rustic/gnarly carrots and a purple cauliflower. I’m already thinking the cauliflower is going to be used for a soup that is heavily laden with goat cheese despite…
