Scenes From A Farmer's Market....

While in Canada, I went to a local farmer's market and though it was nothing to really write home about (read: super small, like 10 booths small), it still had some seriously beautiful flowers and produce!



The tomatoes were gorgeous....and expensive. How is it possible that a tomato could cost so much??






And the honey, ooooh the honey! I had NO clue there were different types of honey?!? I walked away with a jar of this...


and let me tell you, it actually has a blackberry taste to it...who knew?? Apparently the bees get their nectar mainly from blackberry bushes...I may or may not have had an in depth discussion with the seller about her honey.


I love me some funkily shaped pumpkins...gourds...whatever these were called.


mmmmm bread.


It helped that we had these two beautiful girls to watch dance, wander, and run around as well.


I mean, how cute are they?!? They being Aubrey and my sister Astrid's girl, Aniya.


Dancing away and making some Oma's fall in love with them :) And then they begged for more money to put in the case...


Seriously?!? SO CUTE!

Well, the girls were most certainly the high-light of that market, that's for sure. It was small, but I suppose it's only the beginning stages, so hopefully by the next time we go back there, it will be HOPPING!! Those pictures of Aniya and Aubrey, how cute. I love them holding hands. Precious. Aniya is missing Aubrey pretty bad. Or maybe she is just missing someone to bug. Either way, it's a deep-rooted missing feeling :) x
