Today had all the right elements to work into a great day.
1) the weather is finally nice, and appears to be stabilizing into summer
2) day off, so I got to meet CH for a nice brunch at a French bakery
It was what happened after brunch that I'm most proud of. Though this entry won't be interesting to many readers, I figured I had put up some really thought-provoking material this last week so it would be okay to dish about how CH and I made out like bandits at the farmers market. On just $20, I got a half-pound of Ranier Cherries, two large zucchini, almond brittle, kettle corn, a large sprig of basil, a bundle of garlic roots (stems? they are weird looking and to be used in place of garlic), a pint of raspberries, and a half-pound of green beans. This much stuff at Safeway would easily cost twice that, be completely insipid, and would have half the shelf life.
(It will also come as no surprise that while shopping for a birthday gift, CH basically forced me into Nine West and we got an amazing deal on some really excellent shoes. This was my treat to myself for having an extremely unpleasant day at work yesterday---more horrible than I can describe in this forum, and since the shoes weren't expensive, there is no buyers remorse.)

Hahaha. You'll have to forgive me when I read that you and CH "made out like bandits" my first thought was not on shopping for groceries.
Unfortunately, that's how the saying goes. I figured the title would have indicated nicely that I was referring to stealing, not kissing. ...mind in the gutter, camron!
Hahaha. I'm sorry! I can't help that it's my first thought when I see that phrase.... I'm still only 20 years old here; not completely matured...
But then, the male sex never really does fully mature, do we? haha.
I initially had the same reaction, Im afraid.
Well, your phraseology didn't make me think that you and C were making out....
But good deals at the farmers market. The one PSU or the one in the Pearl?
I guess that's the difference between boys and girls.
We were up at the PSU market on Saturday. I haven't been to the Pearl one, and I rarely make it to the one on Salmon because I'm usually working. :)
Haha. There certainly is a gender gap, I suppose.
