Our Local Farmer's Market

has opened up again for the season!

Each Wednesday local farmers set up

their tents or open up the back of their trucks

and come to our downtown area to

sell their goodies.

I bought some fresh peas,

not only are they delicious but taking

them from the pods always takes me

back to my childhood...it was my job

to prepare the peas for dinner.

There are always several stands offering

fresh baked bread, so I had to buy some!

I bought fresh mozzarella from the cheese vendor.

Of course I had to stop and see the olive vendor

and buy some of those to go with the bread & cheese.

Some fresh bean dip found it's way into my bag...

along with some local honey,

and these fried plantain chips,

I swear I don't remember buying all of this :)

I was pretty hungry after the shopping

so I stopped at our local health

food store and had a bowl of

sweet potato soup for lunch, yummy!

Now I've got all this fresh food

and a full tummy so what should I make for

dinner???
