Wednesday is by far our favorite day of the week. This is due to the farmer's market located downtown. Today we ventured to the market in the late afternoon. The Kid and best friend delighted in a fresh homemade strawberry kiwi Popsicle. They spent a large amount of the time running wild in the grass and listening to sub par hippie music, playing with a group of children and several hula hoops.
I browsed around and scored blueberries, strawberries, nectarines, bell peppers, potatoes. onions, green beans, zucchini and tempeh. My hand woven market bag was full and I was a happy vegan. The dinner tonight- teriyaki tempeh with brown rice and mixed vegetables. The Kid had chicken nuggets, after spitting out the tempeh and giving me a look of disgust. It's an acquired taste, I guess.
Saturday is the next market day, and I am hoping to find melons. I have several melon salads that I am dying to make for lunch. I also want to grab more blueberries, and make a vegan berry cobbler. How lucky my family is to live in a place with such a variety of fresh food!
