It was a perfect day for the last outdoor Farmers' Market of the season. Sparkling sunshine, not too cold, people shopping madly (but not yet stressed out) for Thanksgiving.
Overheard...
I want a kale and quinoa salad for dinner.
Did you see the delicata squash? We could stuff them.
We still have loads of roots left so we'll do the indoor market for a few weeks.
Yes, that's a watermelon radish.
See you in the spring!
I picked up two large stalks of Brussels sprouts for Roasted Brussels Sprouts with Bacon and Maple, a fan favorite at my Thanksgiving dinner.
cranberries for Cranberry Salsa...
carrots for Pomegranate-Glazed Carrots...
and ornamental kale for decoration.
Have you ever seen/heard of a caraflex cabbage? They're pointed! I was told they're sometimes used for sauerkraut.
Or a deadon cabbage? So pretty.
The delicata squash are lovely...
but I like the ugly gourds, warts and all.
Love cauliflower - excellent cauliflower recipe coming soon!
Speaking of flowers...
How are your Thanksgiving plans coming?
I'll be sharing more of mine tomorrow.
Where is this cute market?! So many fantastic finds. I've never bought a Brussels sprout stalk before. I'm terribly jealous now and sort of want to string lights and cranberries on it instead of a tree ;)
ReplyDeleteErin, this is at the Deering Oaks Saturday market! It would make an adorable little Christmas tree.
Deleteyou are making me want to shop... i want those jeweled carrots, so gorgeous...
