Sunday used to be my least favorite day of the week but now that I get to go to the Farmer's Market in Dupont Circle on Sundays I love it! October is the last month that it runs on "summer hours" and then I think it officially moves into winter (which might not be such a bad thing because maybe then there won't be so many people?). I was particularly happy to go this weekend because I didn't go last weekend and I had eaten almost all of the apples from the Great Apple Picking Weekend. In short, I was very, very low on food. So, there are still tomatoes and other summer fruits and vegetables but there were also fall vegetables this week. My haul is pretty pedestrian -- nothing too exciting here except that it's all super fresh and fantastic. Maybe in the dead of winter when the pickings are slimmer I might be forced to branch out into "scary" vegetables but for now I'm just going to soak up my favorites. I will say, I saw the most beautiful yellow Swiss chard today and I was tempted . . . but I'm going to wait for Hank to come and visit before I officially foray into greens again.
Fresh ginger (isn't it pretty?), onion, haricots verts, a log of goat cheese, tomatoes, apples (Macoun, Crispin, and Winter Banana), celery, carrots, Greek yogurt, and mozzarella.
Another view of all of my fantastic food!
