polka dot pedal pushers

Here are my carefully chosen selections from the market this week. 

That beautiful green leaf lettuce got turned into a fried chicken salad on Saturday night.

These radishes were a total impulse buy.  They looked so pretty all grouped together.  I had no idea what I was going to do with them, but I solved that problem handily. 

This is a new savory way to enjoy toast for breakfast with an over easy egg and a side of bacon.  Toasted "country french" bread topped with pesto, sliced radishes and sea salt.  Oh so good.   I am usually a sweet topping on the toast kind of person, this may have reformed me.   

I like observing other shoppers for good ideas.  When I need a cane, I am going to remember this smart lady using a roller bag for her purchases.   I also saw an extremely well behaved pup and a little girl getting started on the road to a life-long love of gardening.  

Her mom was schooling her in how to choose a healthy plant.  I liked her polka dot pedal pushers. 

This mix of 3 types of kale looked intriguing.  Almost as interesting as the Jamaican Jungle juice.  I wanted to see what it looked like but I didn't want to ask. 

Next week I will hide out in the plants across the way and watch to see if anyone gets one,  then I can gauge their reaction and decide if it's something I NEED to sample.

I love these vicarious trips to the Farmers Mkt. with you. The first photo of the Market harvest is so nice. The little girl in pink polka dot peddle pushers! Adorable. I'd wear those myself if I could find some.

You are so informative...I did not know that radishes came in so many varieties. I also would not have thought about slicing them on toast with pesto. I may open that door and step out to try that.
