Farm To Market


Wednesday is Farmer's Market Day for us and I always look forward to it. We never seem to be able to get to the morning farmer's markets, but this one is in the evening and just perfect for us.
It's just big enough to get all kinds of fresh and prepared goodies but small enough to be intimate and a great place to hang out. It's held in an area that allows for a band and picnicing, which we do every week.
Tonight was excellent. All the vendors have their tents strung with lights of all kinds, the music was a lone sax and the air was just brisk enough to allow us to pull up our hoods and get our noses a little pink. We munched on some of the most delish Thai food that Austin has to offer, made by our friend Jam , sipped some fresh, local, hibiscus mint tea, said hello to friends and played a little tag with Monkey. Squeak tested out her new mobility and visited some of the other picnic blankets asking for food. She's such a cute little ham butt!

The day started out rough with a lot of pain and fatigue, but it ended with me being able to run in circles playing tag with Monkey and chasing Squeak on her social adventures. Yumminess!
