Oh, Hello! - and A Farmer's Market ;)

Oh, look!  I still have a blog!

I'd apologize for not having updated in...forever...but, well, we've been living our lives. ;)

And I've got a few pictures to prove it.

Last week, we headed out to the big farmer's market.  As much as I talked about markets last year and the year before, it's actually the first time we've headed out this season.  There's just been too  much other stuff going on!


Bug is four now, and decided that HE was going to push Boo (almost two!) in her stroller.  She doesn't ride in it often, so she was pretty tickled by the whole thing.  He even pushed her around - with some minimal steering assistance - for  about ten minutes before he gave up on it.

We saw some really great stuff.  Flowers and veggies and some super yummy prepared foods.



The kids loved the veggies.

We got the BEST hot dogs ever from these guys...


Seriously.  SO good.

All of the hot dogs are named after actual dogs, which was cool.  I got the Igby - blue cheese, cole slaw and bbq sauce.  Sounds maybe a little strange, but I've craved another ever since.


After lunch, we picked up some super yummy, all natural popsicles.

Bug got chocolate raspberry.



I got prickly pear and passionfruit, but Boo snagged it immediately.  She did allow me a small taste.  Quite yummy.


And, yes, she finished the WHOLE thing.

Bug's Obession

Oranges - Almost Ripe

This is what we see from the kitchen at my mom's house.  A gorgeous orange tree that Bug has been eyeballing for almost six months.  Now that the oranges are actually *orange*, he's been chomping at the bit to eat one.  Daily, he'll exclaim "They're ripe!"  We tested one a week or so ago and it was still pretty bitter.  This week, they're MUCH better.  And he's been eating as many as we'll allow him to have. :)
