There were lovely flowers to celebrate my return to the farmers market after a two week absence, plus blueberries from my favorite blueberry growing family.
Madeline's zinnias have also returned to the market. The very essence of the colors of summer.
Conversations were happening. I think these two were talking about how to flip omeletts or it could have been a friendly debate regarding the preferred method of boiling eggs.
There were some lovely onions, which reminds me I have not made any pickled cucumbers and red onions yet this year.
I saw these angel wing begonias and broke my vow NOT to do any this year after the past two years where they have looked good for about 6 or 8 weeks and then gone down the tubes.
If any of you are angel wing begonia experts do give me your advice. I have tried to be especially mindful not to over-water, but maybe that is it? I have always had them in pots on my front porch where they get a bit of morning sun but shade in the very hottest part of the day.
Couples had not stopped holding hands in my absence, and cute girls are still bringing their pups with them as meander through the booths. Which makes me very happy.
Basket contents above. My refrigerator is full of greens and I am glad to report that in Lawrence Kansas, all is right with the world again.
Glad you're home safe after a terrific trip, and I always love the Farmer's Market. The combination of your great eye & photo skills give the real feel of it!
