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 1/3/13 & 1/10/13
The start of the new year is now past. Everyone is seemingly falling back into the routine of life, myself included. December was nuts. I didn’t make it to a single farmers market in the month of December. Part of me enjoyed the break from having to be at a set place at a set…
Farmers Market 4/26/12
Creature of habit I am. What is more interesting about this post is that I took these pictures with a 24mm manual focus lens! I didn’t have to stand high above on a step stool to get everything in frame as I do when I use the 50mm. A friend is letting me borrow it…
Farmers Market 4/12/12
Much smaller haul this week. Lots of green! Cabbage English peas Asparagus Kale Green garlic Oak leaf lettuce (I think) I was happy to see a ton more english peas at the market. But after shelling them today I was greatly disappointed with the yield. Very small immature peas. I may have to hold back…
Farmers Market 4/5/12
A day late, I know! But I did get back to the market yesterday after being gone for nearly two weeks. It really did feel like I overbought but I didn’t. Instead I ended up splurging on 3 “new to me” items. Making up for the last couple of weeks? Maybe. Satsumas Guava (possibly green…
Farmers Market 3/8/12
Aside from the artichokes and citrus I didn’t have much of a plan for the market today. I think I came out with a pretty good variety this week. I noticed a few new items this week, specifically guava and taro root, that I chickened out in purchasing. But thats what a google search and…
Farmers Market 3/1/12
Despite being rainy and foggy as I made my trek to the market this morning, I think I made out pretty well. I found some Okinawan sweet potatoes! I knew I was overdue to purchase something “new to me” at the market, but really? I was sold upon seeing their beautiful purple flesh. There is…
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…
Farmers Market 2/9/12
I skipped last weeks market run. While it mostly came down to being tired from the days prior, I thought I might be able to stretch what was left for another week. I’ve not been happy with the amount of food waste I have had lately so my laziness was a good push use up…
