Here is my haul from the farmers market today:
1. Green beans for dinner tonight to go along with rice and pork chops. That was on the menu 7 years ago when Chris cooked the first meal in our new house. It's become an annual tradition on this weekend in August.
2. Kale to go in a breakfast casserole per specific request from Angie.
3. Fingerling potatoes.
4. Lemon cucumbers - say what? Never heard of them before. Going to slice them up to eat with hummus for lunch next week.
As I passed these two fellows today the younger one was remarking "I think I petted more dogs than you today, how many did you pet?" Important discussions abound at the market.
Space ship pajama boy (from last week) brought his super hero cape with him today. I don't know his name yet, but I think by next week we might get on a first name basis.
Tuberose was my choice in the bouquet category today. Lordy they do smell good. Tuberose where have you been all my life and why did it take me so long to discover you?
I Love that you go to the market each week... mine is really too far away to do that... but our garden is producing some great green beans right now!!!

I haven't heard of lemon cucumbers either, but now they are on my list of things to hunt down and try. :)

Lemon cukes? Who knew? I've never seen/heard of them either. The rest of the grub looks great.
Now tuberose...aren't they from Hawaii? What the heck are they doing in KS? I've never seen them in the high desert and don't recall seeing them in CA when I lived there. I know they have a very sweet fragrance and can be overwhelming if not in a large area of the house.
