Tonight, I managed to escape work early enough to hit up the second week of the local farmer's market. By most standards, it's a small market and further from my house than I would like, but I still enjoy it.
My main motivation were garlic scapes and strawberries. Last week, I devoured a quart of strawberries in 4 days. The local berries are nothing like what's available in the supermarket (either now, or any time of year): they're bright red all the way through, smaller and juicier. I love them. The garlic scapes were a first for me...more on that in a following post.
Ah, local bounty: garlic scapes, half a loaf of whole wheat bread, a pint of strawberries, fresh radishes and crisp lettuce. Wonderful!
