Fresh cantaloupe from the farmer's market.
Yum.

Oh- have I mentioned the freshly picked sweet strawberries?

Life is good.

1. We went this morning
Fresh lettuce, organic eggs, and free-range whole chickens

2. Isn't "organic egg" an oxymoran?
:evilgrin:

6. Nope, because morans don't eat organic eggs
Organic for eggs refers more to how the chickens are fed.

4. My dear Prisoner_Number_Six...
That sounds yummy indeed...

I go to my Farmer's Market every Thursday afternoon, and I love it...

It's not a big one, but it suits me just fine...

Life is good indeed...

Plus, the Indians beat the Red Sox... :woohoo:

7. Mmmmmmmmmmmmm, canteloupe! Nature's most nearly perfect food!
If you were to read a list of all the nutrients in a canteloupe, you'd be stunned.

Make sure you wash the fruit thoroughly BEFORE you cut into it, though, unless you grew it yourself. The rough skin traps all manner of E. coli and other germs when the canteloupes are handled by god-only-knows-whoever came before you. It's not as much of a problem with other, smoother melons.
