Market Selection
Natural selection is in full force at the market this week, having winnowed out any vendors that don’t sell root vegetables, baked goods, or meat. As usual, I needed all of those things, so I did my part to provide … Continue reading
Market Shift
Apples and squash everywhere, snow yesterday morning — it must be fall in new England. I was hit with a nasty cold this week, which kept me out of the kitchen for a few days, so I still have most … Continue reading
Market Cooldown
The tomatoes are gone and the apples are taking over, which can mean only one thing: farmer’s market season is drawing to a close. A long weekend with dinner invites, a fridge still full of veggies, and a work week … Continue reading
Market Saturation
It’s pouring today. Bad news for the market vendors, good news for me: no dogs, strollers, or bicycles to trip over, no lines to buy what I need. Peaches are gone for good, more apples are appearing, and the fall … Continue reading

Market Doldrums
It’s hot, too hot to cook let alone think about what to cook for the upcoming week. But I forced myself to think ahead and plan my market visit for some of the meals I’ll make in the cooler days … Continue reading
Market Recovery
We returned from Montreal to an empty pantry and fridge; nothing yesterday’s trip to the market couldn’t fix. More new vegetables and fruits are arriving as the season progresses, so it was time to sample some new offerings. Above we … Continue reading
Market Predictions
More market goodies today, but again not as much as usual, since we’ll be in Montreal later next week (look for some food posts while we’re there). For baked goods there’s a peach pie, a cookie (breakfast!), another wheel of … Continue reading
