First of all, thanks to everyone who showed up for my cooking demo, and for not laughing at me for being nervous and babbling like an idiot (this is where Husband rolls his eyes and says "I'm sure you didn't babble like an idiot" in that worn out but still nice voice)!
It was a lovely market day, and I was a little sad to have missed all of the marketing (in addition to cooking, I also judged the jelly-making and tomato contests, along with members of the legitimate press). The heirloom tomatoes I passed made me swoon, but alas, my day was too busy. I'll have to make up for it next week. This week's CSA included cherry tomatoes, a nice fat heirloom tomato (hillbilly?), edamame, hot peppers, eggs, green beans and onions.
I haven't been cooking at all lately - if you could see the lists of recipes I want to make for you, restaurants I want to eat in, etc., you would be yelling at me to shake off this August malaise and start cooking! and eating! Perhaps now that things have cooled down a bit, we can get back out there. It looks like we're in for a lot of rain this week, and I do enjoy cooking when it's raining, so maybe I'll find some inspiration.
Next week I'll be out at the markets early, early, early - the North Market was really crowded this week. Hopefully I'll see you there!
