Hot DAMN, it's getting good at the farmers' market! Today, my favorite
strawberry vendor showed up for the first time this season; moreover,
the cherry folks had peaches and nectarines in addition to their stellar
apricots. Fresh figs are a couple weeks away, fresh basil is making an
appearance, favas are abundant, rhubarb's still strong, asparagus
continues its trajectory -- yes, I'm a giddy girl this evening. :-P

Yeehaw!!
I will be heading to the Santa Monica farmers market when I am in
California next week... I am soooo looking forward to the fruits and
veggies there.....
Might find some stuff for the Southern Cal cook-in on June 10. 😉

Where are you in this big wide world?
I usually go to a Wednesday market too, in Carlsbad. This week I missed it because my
daughter had a concert, so now I have to go to the smaller one in Oceanside to tide
me over til Sunday when I go to Hillcrest. These are all in San Diego County.

I'm thinking with all this warm sunny weather, the strawberries should be nearing
phenomenal at my favorite stand too! 😉

That's particularly apropos after I misread the Subject line as "Market

Just so you know -- I hate you. Really. I do.
What's your plan for the aps, cherries, and other stone fruits? Will
you preserve any? It would be wrong if you didn't make some apricot
butter. Just wrong. And if you're not into preserving (canning) and
want info, ask at rec.food.preserving. There's only about three people
here who know anything about it. "-)

Soda? Sweet? Club soda? TaB?
I use leftover cherry juice in lemonade or TaB.

Where is the Carlsbad market? I'll be there visiting my mom in early July,
and while I won't be there on Wednesday, my sisters will be there a longer
time and might be interested in the market.

Our farmers market is today and, as you say, the variety of stuff is
increasing. I got strawberries, haricots verts, artichokes, fat green
onions, and grapefruit. Not sure why I passed up the cherries, both
Bing and Rainier White -- the samples were delicious. -aem

So where is your market? I enjoy hearing about other folks' foraging trips!

Oh, and next time you ought to get those cherries . . .

Right near Carlsbad Village drive and Jefferson. Easy to find, not as easy to park 😉
