Tall Tales from Kansas

Let’s give this new site a whirl shall we? It will be an experiment, flying by the seat of my pants with no instruction on really what should go where or what it will look like.

It seems right to start with a post about the Farmers Market since I could not post photos last week on my old site. These mini pumpkins were the first thing I encountered as I entered the market.

There was also hand spun just waiting to be made up into a pair of mittens.

Signs of fall all around. Peppers, apples, marigolds, baskets of greens. You see the mums in back of the peppers right?

I love how this woman was GETTING the watermelon with her name on it. Size be damned! Of course she could carry it to her car. No, she did not need help. Yes, I could take her picture.

It is never too early to start teaching a youngster about the ways of the market.

Cake this week? Orange/honey. Intensely orange, incredibly moist, five stars.

I followed the lady with the super cool glasses from Mrs. Peters table (where I got applesauce) to Thuy’s for juice. We discussed our favorites, I told her she won the prize for best glasses at the market.

Here is what came home with me. Yes, there were apples, apple butter, and apple sauce. It’s apple eating season. The more the better.

I realize you can see the mini pumpkin just fine in the photo above, but I needed to add the big one below as well. Details are important.

Speaking of details, bear with me. I am learning the WordPress way of doing things. Hopefully when I hit publish things well work.
