Tonight I went to the Farmers Market in Nowthen to pick up my allottment of food. Besides the quart of organic strawberries I got 2 ears of corn, 2 peppers, a head of garlic, 3 red onions, a bunch of arugula, 3 beets, 2 cucumbers, and a big head of white cauliflower (last week my cauliflower was yellow). The chickens devoured the cucumber already. They also pecked away at both of the corn cobs. And did I show restraint in shopping? I did very well. I bought one delicious $2 oat, rhubarb ginger scone and that baby was gone before I entered the city of Ramsey.
