Farmers market

It's finally farmers market season, and today was the opening day of the Bremerton Farmer's Market.  I went, I spent, I met some new vendors, talk to some old ones I recognized, and was cheered up more than you can possibly imagine.

I joined the blueberry club and the peach club at my favorite Yakima fruit stand (works kind of like my CSA - you prepay for a certain amount of pounds for each, and then get a discount per pound.  I paid for 4 pounds of blueberries and 10 pounds of peaches.  CANNOT WAIT for fruit season).  I bought some chai pastries from a new business.  Bought some wonderfully smelling homemade hippie skin balm.  And had a turkey avocado bacon sandwich from my favorite griller, CJs market.  The farm where I bought my CSA last year wasn't there, so I was unable to ask them questions.  I'm deciding whether or not I want to join this year.  It was a struggle to buy $300 worth of veggies last year.

Oh, and it's my Friday.  I couldn't be more pleased.



If the path is beautiful, let us not ask where it leads.
