A fruitful Morn’

Mom and I got up and went to Amherst for the Farmers Market straight away. Today there also happens to be a huge craft fair going on at the green. We filled our celtic bags with fresh vegetation and continued on to wander through the booths at the fair. I...

Farmers’ market happiness

I really enjoy going to the farmers’ market.  The one in Amherst is held on Saturday mornings and they attract not only conventional farmers, but local bakers, organic farmers, and dairies.  Below are some of my purchases of the day. Summer squash, zucchini, golden zucchini, and a good old cuke...

What a week

So on Sunday Chris and I were over at Bob’s for dinner. Upon leaving we noticed that the inspection sticker on my truck had expired at the end of March. What’s aggravating about that is that it’s been in the shop numerous times over the last few weeks and nobody...
