Market Day


Slept in today.  So I didn't get to go to the other market.  Went to my usual market and got lots of good stuff.  I probably would've been overloaded if I'd gone to both!

Today's market finds: cucumbers, bell peppers, Asian pears, apples, satsumas, mustard greens, turnips, oak leaf lettuce, yellow squash (tiny ones!), shiitake mushrooms, sweet potatoes (am I going to have to have a sweet potato challenge??), popcorn rice, tomatoes, grape tomatoes, kale(YAY!), and green beans.



For dinner, I roasted some vegetables, but I added eggplant, since I needed to use it up.  Also added a little balsamic vinegar near the end, for flavor.  Served with polenta.  Wasn't that into it.  My husband liked it though! I could've used more vinegar.  Was thinking of making a balsamic reduction for it....not enough time.  Next time I'll try that.  Does it really take a couple of hours to make?  Anyone?


Maybe tomorrow I'll make a millet dish.  I came across some good recipes from various blogs......I think I'm becoming addicted to food blogs.  Is that wrong??  I look at Google reader everyday (ok, several times a day) to see what's new in my billion blogs I'm subscribed to!  I can't keep up with you guys.

Was such a nice day today....walked in the park for 45 minutes.  Lots of ducks, swans, geese, egrets, and even a heron.  Although we did get chased by some aggressive Muscovy ducks.....

Ok, that's all for now.
Eat smart,
T.

  1. Awesome veggie haul! And yay for millet! It's my new favourite!!

    And I have the same problem. There's constantly over 250 posts sitting in my google reader waiting for me, especially with Vegan Mofo going on (and why most the blogs I read hear nothing from me for a week or 2 then suddenly have comments on a whole bunch of posts at once :P)
