- 2 bunches milky white baby turnips
- 1/2 flat of strawberries--not Hoods yet, but getting better and sweeter every week
- 2 - 1/2 gal. glass jugs of 2% milk from Jersey cows
- Asparagus
- Salami from Olympic Provisions
- A baguette and a palmier for Rachel from Fleur-du-Lys bakery
- Baby arugula
- Rock cod
- 2 Pork tamales
It was stupidly and annoyingly cold at the Market, which greatly diminished the appeal of stacks of greens as the primary vegetable produce--felt too much like a hangover from winter. We've become addicted to the non-homogenized milk on sale from a herd of pastured Jersey cows: wonderful color, aroma, flavor, mouth feel. The only cows I've ever milked were Jerseys--they have the most beautiful doe-like faces. They produce a smaller volume of milk than Holsteins (the ubiquitous milk cow here in the States) but higher in milkfat and protein.
Mario and I breakfasted on the tamales.
Cloud 9, an a capella group from Franklin with several da Vinci alums, was performing--they're excellent! Now if it would just warm up for Chrissake!
