to market...to market...

friday evening i was talking on the phone with my mother...and she mentioned that she might go to the farmer's market on saturday.  so...when i woke up saturday morning...i thought i'd head over to my parent's...and go with her.  

of course...since she didn't know i was coming...i called first to make sure she hadn't gone already...because i didn't want to get to the house...and be the only one there.  

we had a great day...and tried some new things.  

here...my mother is holding a bunch of satsuma oranges that she purchased.  we tried one when we got back to the house.  they look funny...as the skin is very wrinkled...but the inside fruit was very sweet.

i bought award-winning nago ginger sesame miso salad dressing from these gentlemen.  they were giving out salad samples at their booth.  david's (on the right) dad makes the dressing.

garlic.

swiss chard - i didn't buy this...i just like the color.  

***

love...love...love...blueberries!

my mother has a frog collection in her garden.

when we left the market...we went to best buy...and i posed with sully and pooh.  it was rather warm out...and i'm sure they were hot in those costumes!    

 

we hit up a few other stores and a car wash before i returned home.  we had a great day.  thanks mom!
