double duty at the farmers market. yesterday got some handmade corn tortillas, hot peppers and cantaloupe on my block. today in union square picked up some slender green beans, red swiss chard and the biggest scallions ive ever seen - 24". lots of peppers, plums, nectarines, peachs, cukes, tomatoes and greens. tis the season......
loved the cantaloupe especially because its hide is relatively smooth and uniformily tan unlike the normal reptilian skinned variety. looking forward to comparing the taste.
ahh, figured out what they were up to yesterday. 4. New York City International Pickle Day Festival, the Lower East Side Business Improvement District and the NY Food Museum will present the sixth annual Pickle Day, featuring pickle samples along with pickling and home canning demonstrations, on Sunday, September 17, 10:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. on Orchard Street on the Lower East Side.
