delray green market


                     

           this morning i ventured over a few blocks to the delray green market. the first thing i felt was pure happiness. it reminded me so much of the farmers market along the vltava river in prague. like this one, it was small and the vendors had similar things to buy. i was wishing matt was by my side instead of at work to help me pick things out, but i managed. i think the one thing that put me in a sort of shock was that i could speak to everyone in english. whenever we visited he farmers market in prague we felt really nervous about how to buy things. it was always us just pointing and trying our best to get what we wanted.



there was fresh pasta.... i opted for the asian orzo because i adore orzo. ( sesame, lemon ginger, cayenne pepper, and chive and garlic parsley.) mmm i can't wait to cook it!














there were so many things that i wanted... the fresh fish looked amazing... i hear such good things about the local delray eggs, and i tried some amazing fresh mozzarella. next time i'll get all of that!






they had gorgeous loose leaf teas and loose spices. it smelled heavenly.
we ran into our friend roxanne... she was holding this adorable bag with her little plant.

i bought this :) which i love... it's going to attract butterflies.


what i ended up geting- dill pickles! orzo, multi grain bread from the old school bakery, gala apples, a pepper, and a sicilian eggplant. tonite i'm going to make some eggplant burgers!  


i'm looking forward to going back. you should check it out and support our locals :)
