My Bowl Overfloweth With Fruits & Veggies

Mannnnn, it's HOT OUTSIDE!  I waited until 6:00 to go for a run, but it was still 96.6 degrees out when I left!  I opted for a walk instead.

Bruce and I took a trip to the farmer's market tonight. (Our closest market is the Dekalb Farmers Market - it's international, not local, so there is quirky stuff from alllll over the world) We weren't after anything in particular, we just wanted to wander and grab whatever looked good.  I did want to get the ingredients to make pico de gallo and guacamole, so we grabbed tomatoes, onions, cilantro, jalapenos, limes and avacodos.  We also got iceburg and romaine lettuce, spring onions, apples, mangos, pears and plums.


The best part (besides fresh produce that will last longer than what I buy at the grocery store)?  Our total bill was $15 and we have produce to last us through next week!

Does anybody else go to a farmer's market on a regular basis?  I think one of the deciding factors in wherever we move to should be proximity to a farmer's market.
