Farmer's Market...
For quite some time now I have been wanting to go to check out some of the local farmer's markets. Recently I've heard really good things about an indoor farmers market not far from our house. Several of the families I nanny go to this market regularly, so I've had the pleasure of trying some of the delicious veggies. Last week I had some broccoli from the market that was so deep green and had a wonderful flavor. Since this weekend is supposed to be a lazy weekend for us we decided to check it out with no real agenda. We read some reviews on line, got the address, grabbed some bags, and headed down. There were wonderful samples at almost every station. The pasta station was awe inspiring and a bit overwhelming. I really wanted to get some, but we already have a good stock of pasta at home and I really just couldn't decide. We did however try some dark chocolate pasta, very interesting and very tasty. We ended up buying some fresh wheat bread, milk, 2 kinds of yogurt (blueberry & mango), ground buffalo, ground beef, asparagus, and kale. Thankfully the crazy rainy weather subsided just enough for Jesse to grill up some yummy burgers with the ground beef and I sauteed up some of the asparagus. Yum! We will definitely be heading back there on a regular basis.
