lsanderson | Farmer's Market

Last Sunday, we went to the farmer's market. The big one off Lyndale, a ways north of here. Except for the ATM being outta commission at SA and having to get money at the farmer's market expensive ATM, the trip was worth it.

The broad beans were finally in. I bought another three pints o' blueberries to stick in the freezer. I bought containers of brussel sprouts, broad beans, a bunch of fingerling taters, and one container of heirloom tomatoes, where heirloom means "I can charge more." Someone bought a container of eggplant after complaining about all of the eggplants wuz too old. (They vanished that afternoon, and I never did get a taste of what happened to them.) The fingerlings got stir-fried with a bunch of caramelized onions in two different batches. They starred with the broad beans with a spun piece o' pig. Earlier this summer, Lunds had a bag o' gay baby taters on sale, that were just incredible. I'm trying to mount another farmer's market expedition, but it's proving a hard sell this morning.
