In walking in the farmer's market this week, I stopped by the Grinnell Heritage Farms stand. They had a nice variety of products, but they had some gorgeous (smelling and looking) carrots. The tops stand straight up, good color and just a wonderful smell. So I bought two bunches. I think today I'll roast a big chunk of them and eat the rest. It was a beautiful morning at the market. Though a bit chilly. I almost wished I had worn long pants. My layers of fat, however, kept me nice and warm, but my toes (wearing sandals) were a bit cold. It's nice to know that the summer is coming to an end. Though I am not looking forward to winter, especially if it is going to be so snowy like it was last winter, spring and fall are my favorite times of the year. We talked a bit about it, and we'll most likely be going to Farm Crawl 2010 this year (10/3). We talked about going last year, but, if I remember right, Shannon wasn't feeling well that day. I am looking forward to it.
Shannon brought home a zucchini, she suggested cake. I will not be making cake...
