…a funny thing happened on the way to the bar
Farmers Market
One of the two things I miss most with the quarantine are hugs from my parents and farmers markets. The Husband and I are a good self-contained unit, but I miss my parents.
We are working towards self-sufficiently but aren’t there yet. Not everything is ready for harvest in the garden and the damn chickens eat the sprouting things.
So… I broke quarantine for the farmers market. I wore a mask at all times and practiced social distancing as much as I could.
I may have gone a bit overboard.
The damage was less than $100, so I’m pleased.
I bought:
- Broccoli
- Scallions
- Onions
- Beets
- Radishes
- Carrots
- Cabbage
- Kohlrabi
- Chard
- Asparagus
- Potatoes
- Micro greens
- Green tomatoes
- Garlic
- Jam
- Juice
I’ve already eaten all of the beets. I ate some of the micro greens as a snack, and had the jam for breakfast on my toast. In addition, last night included greens and onions from the garden.
