Farmers Market

Saturday, July 16, 2011

The Market has been going for 5 weeks.  It was good to finally get to the Market today.  Because of the long, cold, wet Spring, we have not been able to harvest any fruit until now.  Dave picked the first of the apricots yesterday.  Holy Cow..... they are as big as peaches!  In fact, most people that shopped at our  stand, thought they were.  

We supplemented our apricots with green beans, new potatoes, blackberries, raspberries, cherries, and beets.  It was a very good day!  

We ate a steak and egg burrito at Carl's Jr. for breakfast and Chinese Buffet for dinner .... a tradition I think we are going to change up this year.

mom said the nurse thought your apricots were peaches--I guess he'd never seen an apricot that big.
