Farmer's Market

Our local farmers market is open Monday's, Wednesday's, and Fridays.  Yesterday hubby and I went and the place was jammed!

We got string beans, which I just finished steaming,and when they are cool, we will put in the seal-a-meal.  We also got eggplants, and some beautiful, big green peppers!  My husband roasts them, then puts them under olive oil, and garlic, and some salt and pepper...we use it as an antipasto, as a topping for a sandwich, or many other uses!  It's an Italian dish, not sure what it is called, but it is so good!  My boys love it!

We also got the long peppers, which we are in the process of stuffing them, then we will bake, and freeze them.  I love this time of the year!

They had some beautiful pies, but for $14 I will make my own!  They had some nice looking corn on the cob, but they were expensive.  I got a better price at our local market, and it was delicious!  

We are expecting some navy thunderstorms to roll in this afternoon and evening.  We need the rain, but I hope the winds won't be too destructive.

Our granddaughter started preschool yesterday!  Where did the time go?


Her little buddy missed her my son said!  She couldn't wait to go this morning!  She misses her friends!
Ah, to be so carefree!
