Girls Morning Out

 This morning I took the girls to the farmers market . . .

  They were fascinated with all the varieties of tomatoes

 

 We bought some of these Fairy Tale Eggplants

 

Adrianna couldn't wait to snack on some baby bell peppers

  The girls each got a Sunflower

 We took a break for some fresh lemonade and a cinnamon roll

 The girls enjoyed getting samples of breads, honey, veggies and fruits at some of the stands

 What we took home . . . sunflowers, fairy tale eggplant, sungold tomatoes, and baby bell peppers

 Aren't these so cute?  We came home and roasted some eggplant with squash and onion and snacked on the tomatoes and peppers with hummus.  Yum!

The girls loved the farmers market and are asking to go back next weekend.

Farmers' Market Date

I have a lot of catching up to do!  We have had a busy summer already!  Birthdays, trips and fun stuff are all blog posts I need to catch up on.

Yesterday was my birthday and it was great!  I'll have a post up soon about what I did.  It was so fun!

Since hubby had to work last night and I had such a busy day, he took me to a local farmers' market this morning.  My kids have gone away for the week (tear) so it was just me and the hubs.  It was so nice.  The weather was great this morning, a little overcast and not so hot.  We walked around the farmers' market enjoying looking at all the fruits, veggies, flowers and other homemade items.  It was really busy and I felt a little rushed so we didn't get much.  A few zucchini, an eggplant, jalapeno peppers, and some hot pepper jelly.  Say what?  You've never had hot pepper jelly?  Well, you should try it.  I was skeptical at first but tried it and now I'm hooked!

After that, we made our way to Whole Foods to pick up a few things then we went out to lunch. 

Here are a few pics from the farmers' market.

Since my kids are away I'm sure I'll have some extra time to catch up on some blogging!
