What A Great Day At The Market
We woke up this morning and visited our local farmer’s market. While we were there, we bought some pork chops, some chicken, and some soup bones. We also bought two dozen free range eggs, some lettuce, and the kids bought themselves peacock feathers.
We ventured over to the State Farmer’s Market, even though I don’t like that one, to see if they had any tomatoes (the drought here literally killed our local markets and our supply. We were able to purchase 3 boxes (25lbs each) of Roma tomatoes for $4 per box, and 2 boxes of beefsteaks for $9 per box. We made out like bandits.
We also bought three bushels of apples for $17 a piece. Can you say applesauce, apple butter, and apple pie filling? I bet you could.
Behold, the roma tomatoes…
