Sunday’s farmers’ market included more riches for all the senses and stimulus for the imagination:
- woolen slippers in muted (mulled) colors
- kittens for adoption finding their children
- porchetta sandwiches charred on a grill
- an orange zest scone wrapped in paper
- tender lettuces bundled into a wooden crate
- the year’s last tomatoes and seedy peppers
- little tart apples, some gnarled in interesting ways
- olallieberry jam to stir into oatmeal
- wild sole to pan fry for tomorrow night’s supper
- mole negro tamales from the Oaxacan Kitchen
- the smell of curry, and of spit-roasting chickens
- chocolates, olive oils, cheeses
- the art supply store, brushes and easels
