Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"

Timelies all!

Back from the second day of the folk festival. Nice day, nice weather.

I went to the farmer's market this morning. Fresh veggies won't show up for another few weeks, but there are some other great vendors I like to support.

As I was walking around I heard a couple behind me pondering the lack of fruits and veggies at a farmer's market. I spoke with them and they had recently moved from California. One of the few times I didn't feel like a Colorado newbie. While we won't get fresh stuff for a bit, our market is open through November.

Flea - I haven't been in my office since my vacation and I need to go tomorrow. Really don't want to.

The farmers markets here are still mostly leafy greens. Some asparagus, and hothouse tomatoes, and this week I got garlic scapes, but it's mostly greens and will be for another few weeks, probably.

Whereas in GA I have zucchini and beans and tomatoes in my own yard already. On the other hand, it is 96 degrees. Wanna trade?

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

We went out and bought a fan for our back porch and replacements for our yard lights (which are now just $1.99 bulbcovers and are kinda fugly)--birthday present of the DH. While at the Lamps Plus Outlet store, we spied a set of metal trunks. They were slightly scratched and so we got them for $130 for the pair, plus J had them throw in a lifetime replacement for our lamps. Sweet!

It is 89 here...hot enough. I'm sure my CSA box will be full of leafy stuff for a while. Our pick-ups start in two weeks!

The stuff at the farmers' market was enough for me to put together a pretty good dinner with some pantry staples -- pasta with spinach, tomatoes, garlic scapes, and canellini beans. Still in the process of cooking it, but I think I'll throw in a bit of white wine, and maybe some oregano.

I didn't make it to the market Saturday, but they start Wednesday markets in June, so Imma go on Wednesday

I bought a tomato plant, and will buy a couple more, but I need tomatoes now. I also want to see if they have berries yet. I think I'll have to wait a couple of weeks for peaches.

I bought a mint plant, and I think I'll pick up a parsley plant. I really have to focus on container gardening this year. Which is still 1000X more than I did last year.

I haven't trusted science since I saw the film "Flubber."

Our CSA has totally been asparagus, leafy greens, and herbs. Next week we get strawberries, though.
