getting fresh

Last weekend, while wandering down the street, we happened upon a Live Green event. Among the displays was a booth for produce. Big and beautiful... Mmmm, me likey.



I love outdoor markets and while this was just a one-time weekend event, it was lovely to see tables packed with locally-grown peppers, carrots, peas, potatoes, onions and tomatoes in the middle of the street with city lights, crowded sidewalks and towering buildings around. Concrete vs. colour. Interesting juxtaposition.

My mouth waters just looking at these things. I forget where I am and want to start shopping for dinner. If there was seasoning around, I would have heard sizzling in my ears. And every time someone says this magic combination of words -- onions and garlic -- I can instantly smell and hear it. Every time.

Ah, the sights and sounds of love...
