finally made it to a farmers market today… when I worked we would often get to the market which was either beside, or in, the Hydro building…

this is just a small one, located in the parking lot of a fairly close grocery store…

so excited to get peas, yay… and carrots, radishes, green and regular onions, garlic, asparagus, baby potatoes (both white and red), and dill…

so far I’ve had peas with my lunch and supper, lol…

next up will be potatoes with peas, carrots, asparagus, and dill… yum…

somewhere…

went for a drive with my adventure partner…

drove just outside the city to Jonathan’s Farm to collect the veggies we both ordered online…

it was a sunny day and the drive was relaxing…

there was no one around when we arrived although I spotted someone in the field way down the way, lol…

we gathered up our produce and headed home…

the one thing we noticed was all the crazy drivers on the road, lol… Friday and everyone was in a hurry to get somewhere 🤪…

looking forward to some delicious meals…

more nature…

had a quiet morning around the house… actually put away all the glass balls from the Champagne Bubble Party…

we had a storm which started with lots of thunder and then the sky opened and it poured for maybe ten minutes… watched some TV and made myself a few things to eat…

waiting to move the car seat...

waiting to move the car seat…

then Crystal and the little boys came, transferred the car seat to my car and we went for a wander through Shelmerdine’s where we enjoyed some fall flowers and checked out mulch and many pumpkins… came across a colleague who looked stunning, having just been to a wedding out that way…

there weren’t very many folks around so the little people ran about checking out all the pumpkins and the trees and bushes…

we went to the market garden and picked up some lovely fresh veggies… we got corn on the cob, peas, yellow and green beans, green onions, garlic, tiny and medium sized potatoes, cauliflower and radishes…

when we got home we put a little roast on the barbecue and prepared yellow beans, corn, potatoes and a caesar salad for our dinner… it was lovely… sadly the littlest person is going through the no meat phase, although both of his brothers went down that path long before he did… while the roast and potatoes were just finishing the propane ran out on the barbecue so Jeff put a new tank on… should I have the desire to barbecue, there will be fuel, lol…

after supper we read a book and then everyone went home and I had a little nap… when I got up the moon was smiling at me through the tree and I took a couple of pictures…

moon through the tree...

moon through the tree…

since then I have been in the hot tub and enjoyed watching a beautiful star filled sky…

what a lovely day…
