Market Fresh
My 2nd weekly East Columbia Library farmers' market visit yielded some good stuff.

Super Fresh!
Yesterday I swung by the East Columbia Library farmers' market on my way home from work and picked up a few things:
- a beautiful salad greens mix
- tomatoes, variety named "4th of July"
- mini cukes
- sour cherries
(Also on my mind, no-knead artisan bread...which I bet will make fantastic sammiches!)

Veg Out
Now that graduation & birthday season is over in my family, and I am back to eating normal food after extraction of 4 wisdom teeth, it's time I start visiting the farmers' markets for some super fresh produce! Yum!
After working (and of course living) in Columbia nearly 5 years, my office moved to Rockville 2 months ago. Last summer I had this nice little routine going on Thursdays where I would leave the office and hit the East Columbia Library farmers' market on my way home. Now that I'm more or less used to the Columbia/Rockville commute, I need to strategize my produce plan.
Leaving Rockville at 3:30 (the end of my work day) gives me plenty of time to hit any market I want...now, which to choose. I go right past the East Columbia Library still...but I'm feeling wild and may try something new. The Maryland Department of Agriculture has a decent listing for Howard County, though you never know until you go.
Any favorites out there?
(I've been dying to try a CSA program, but I've dropped the ball 3 years running.)
Produce-related, check out this handy-dandy banana holder my best friend gave me! Hey, why not, right?

Also, unrelated except that they use veggies, I terribly miss Bon Fresco for the occasional lunchtime sammich.
