From the Farmers' Market

Let me start off by saying that I'm mildly obsessed with our local farmers' market. It's right around the corner from our house, which is such a dream.

Ours is open year-round on Saturdays and then twice a week from mid-April through the end of October. We're so, so lucky to live in a place that is surrounded with farms, which makes the goods at our local market even better.

Since I never really realized how easy it was to find great produce at the farmers' market until the last few years, I figured I'd share my weekly finds to 1) motivate me to go on a weekly basis and 2) to make everyone jealous of the long growing season here in the south (sort of kidding about that one).

We also do a CSA that will start up later this month that I might post photos of, too.

So, without further adieu, this week's finds:

 

 Basil, lettuce x 2, strawberries, radishes, tomatoes, kale, and eggs

Some things we're planning to make with this week's food: pasta w/ sauteed kale, tomatoes, and basil (plus some more veggies left over from last week); gigantic salads w/ lettuce, radishes, tomatoes, tempeh, and cheddar; and egg sandwiches for breakfast (well, just for me, since Kate hates eggs a whole lot). Oh, and the strawberries? Those have already been devoured! I can't wait for even more produce to be in season soon.
