I'm actually feeling a bit more like myself. I still get tired very easily but it's better than before. I might even recover!

haven't picked a good one yet - still trying to learn how to select one that is ripe and juicy.

The melons caught me by surprise! I was done taking photos, or so I thought, when I saw these! I thought were very cleverly carved.

Always interesting and love the different types of vegetables from your corner of the garden and the variety of crafts. My farmers market isn’t at all as festive as yours so it’s fun to go with you to yours

This particular farmer's market is a different one from the one I attend on Tuesdays. This one is much smaller and not nearly as many vendors as on Tuesdays.

I wish you could really be here so you could go with me to mine! What a blast!

There are so many farmer's markets that it can be daunting to decide which one to go to.

I pick the close ones!
