Stocking Up at the Farmer’s Market

We didn’t make it to the farmer’s market last week, so today, we really really needed to go! And we had last week’s budget to spend as well as this week’s!

Needless to say, we had fun at the market.

First, we ordered crepes from Crepe Creations for The Picky Eater and the adults. Ham and swiss and lemon and sugar. Yumm! It is never good to shop on an empty stomach. Sadly this is their last week until May.  Boy, May seems really really far away.

While waiting for the crepes, I shopped at our favorite produce stand (Penn Farms) and stocked up for the week:

  • broccoli
  • cauliflower
  • 2 onions
  • 2 heads of garlic
  • spring onions
  • potatoes
  • a bunch of carrots
  • and an amazingly large head of red leafed lettuce!
This veggie stock up was followed by a detour to the Virginia Chocolate Factory to get some strawberry jam…
This is why it is impossible to shop at the grocery store anymore.
