16. Thanks so much, my dear malaise!

Every now and then I go nuts at a couple of the local farmer's markets, and today was one of those days.

Maybe because of the rain, everything looked much more beautiful and exotic than they normally do.

[COL Mustard]

28. Which farmer's market do you go to?

My son went to Cal Poly and SLO has a very nice one.

[CaliforniaPeggy]

29. There's two in my neighborhood.

I don't always go to both.

Tuesday is Manhattan Beach's farmer's market. And Thursday is the one in El Segundo.

The MB market is slightly bigger with somewhat better choices.

[COL Mustard]

31. I live in Arlington, VA

So have a choice of lots of FMs to choose from. Love them all, especially this time of year.

my first of the year! Yay.. loved looking at these, my mouth is watering.

This is what I loved best while visiting California.. Thank you Peggy.

[CaliforniaPeggy]

44. I know you'll have a great time, my dear mountain grammy!

We are so fortunate to have year-round markets. Of course the selection is much better in the summer, but even the winter months have good stuff.
Enjoy your market on Thursday!

42. Delicious!

My daughter did an abstract of the same orange/ red flower in a cobalt blue vase I have...we call it Lorraine's flowers. She was an old neighbor, who picked them from her garden for me.

Thank you for sharing, excellent as always.

[CaliforniaPeggy]

47. Thank you so much, my dear Bluethroughu!

I can bet your daughter's work is gorgeous! Good for her, and for your neighbor.

I appreciate your kind words about my work! They keep me sharing.

[Bluethroughu]

48. Your pictures share a happiness we all get to experience,

because of your work. Thank you.
