I know I've mentioned this before, but the joy just can't be contained. I LOVE THE FARMER'S MARKET!
The only think not locally produced in this meal are the prosciutto and the ingredients in the mango *cough* margarita. Even the cheese is local. OK, it's from Vermont - don't quibble.
Dessert:
Black raspberries with a tiny pinch of vanilla sugar and the barest splash of fresh cream. Yum!!!
Bear with me folks. I know it's not knitting, but this is the only stuff that gets me through a season that I otherwise H.A.T.E. with an intese and unbridled passion.
I think I need to start taking the route home that goes by your house. ;)

I'm with you! The farmer's market is the highlight of my week! It's the only thing that will get me outside in this heat.

We have a great farmers market near our house, too. I love our frequent visits for fresh produce! What better way to eat healthy?

Yum! Yea, summer as an adult is not all that it's cracked up to be.

I love farmer's market too and don't miss a Saturday that I don't go. I supplement what I don't grow in my own garden with local produce, fruit, jams, milk, and eggs.
Great looking meal!

Me too! (Hate summer.) Hate!
Good local ingredients, which is nice, but even better is the taste and the goodness for you without sacrificing goodness. Yum!

I'm with you. I absolutely HATE summer. Perhaps there's a correlation between knitters and summer-haters? Should you be inclined to pick blueberries this summer, let me know. I'd love to share the perfect farm.

If you get a chance, you should definitely check out the Duhks! Their most recent CD is pretty good, and from what I heard, their new one is going to be great.
Those blackberries look awesome - I need to find a good produce market before the summer fruit season is over!
