It’s veggie season, y’all! Just this week, our tiny garden yielded about 7 or 8 jalapeno peppers, along with a little bitty green bell pepper. The tomato plants are taller than our 8-year-old boy and should be producing very soon. I get so excited every year when tomatoes come into season. To me, nothing is better than caprese salad – that Italian invention of slices of fresh mozzarella cheese, alternating with fresh sliced tomatoes, accented with fresh shredded basil, seasoned with a drizzle of balsamic vinegar and sprinkled with a bit of kosher salt! Did I just break a record for the number of times “fresh” was used in a sentence?
And, it’s peach season. I haven’t had a chance to buy any yet but am looking forward to my ritual of making peach salsa. I didn’t make any last summer, as I couldn’t find any good peaches.
Then, there are cucumbers. I love a salad made of cucumbers, tomatoes,onion, vinegar, olive oil and dill. It’s simply refreshing served cold on a hot day.
I could go on and on about all the joys of fresh fruits and vegetables and herbs and all the other lovely items that we at The Wednesday Market produce, but I think I should conclude this evening by posting this notice and letting you place your orders!
Here’s hoping that you all have a happy Sunday. We’ll see you at the Market.
Thanks,
Beverly
