The Farmer's Market
This weekend I spent a couple of hours at The Farmer's Market downtown which is always a fun thing to do in town because there is a ton of fresh fruits and vegetables that are sold. As well as produce, you find vendors that are selling fish and meat and even toys or tee shirts. Since you're surrounded by all these different things you're bound to run into someone you know, whether it be a classmate or a professor. While roaming around for something good, I ran into an older man who was selling some great smelling apples and we ended up having this really random conversation about how good apples were and how healthy they were for you. I told him that apples always makes me think of my grandmother because she eats one almost every afternoon. The market also has a stage for live musicians and today there was a local bluegrass group playing. There were a few kids and their parents dancing around which was really funny to watch. These kids were really into it and I could see the connection that was being made between these musicians and the kids. I also some some really good fish for sale too but I am not the most amazing cook so I figured I'd save the fish for a restaurant or at least until I've taken a cooking class or two.
