Farmers Market

     Every Saturday, after naps are over, we go down to the farmers market in town.  People sell jelly, maple syrup, baked goods, and all sort of handmade things.  The kids usual get to split a cookie while I look around and compare prices.  Being in walking distance is another bonus.

All of this was only $18!  Most of it is even organic.

My "Carrot Guys" informed me the reason most carrots are orange is because Dutch farmers decided to grow only orange carrots as a tribute to William the Orange, a leader who gave independence to the Dutch.  Political carrots, who knew?
