The hole that was missing in my life of the farmers market is back.  It feels good to get going back down there.  This week I had 3 in tow (Shannon, and the Mattas) and we went down there after a nice morning relatively lazy morning (I woke up before my alarm, and I think my shower woke others up) and wondered around.  There was a bit of confusion on my part, because there is some construction and vendors have moved around and there are a bunch of new vendors.  I was able to turn in several glass jars that I had empty over the long season.  I got a few new things this year.  I got a new bacon (haven't tried it yet), some pasta from Bagni di Lucca and several other things.  We ate some, we bought some and a little while later my money was gone.  We then headed over to La Mie and had a nice brunch.  Shortly after the Mattas headed home.  It was a nice weekend with a couple of surprises.

• Chicken Alfredo
• Bacon Tuskegee (replicating the dish from La Mie)
• Gemelli pasta with Sausage, Onions and tomatoes (pasta from Lucca)
• Hamburger (from Ebersole Cattle Company, first time for me buying from them, it is of the Maine-Anjou breed)
• Chorizo Tacos
