I bought lots of good things yesterday. I was most excited to see green/wax beans and most disappointed not to find corn. I went to a BBQ yesterday and meant to make a salad from Sara Foster's book, Fresh Every Day (a fabulous book), which was supposed to contain arugula (stand-in for watercress), snap peas, corn, and a blue cheese dressing. Instead I made a huge salad with arugula, snap peas and wax peas that I blanched, raw summer squash, scallions and blue cheese with the lemon/red wine vinegar dressing. It was yummy and disappeared, always a good sign.
Oh! I almost forgot. I'm trying something new from the market I've been intrigued by for a while. Farm-raised, organic rainbow trout - it's right in the front. I bought some that is already seasoned and we're going to try grilling it.
Cheers!

Those peas look divine - I would sit and eat that whole bag raw.
Love fresh veggies!! Your salad that you made sounds heavenly!! Hope the fish turns out great!
I'm so annoyed that I didn't make it out of the house to my local farmer's market today. Your picture is lovely, and your salad sounds yummy :)
The Farmer's Market loot getting more colorful! The salad sounds delicious...can't wait to hear about the trout. I found a new farmer for free-range organic chicken. It is so good - what a difference from the supermarket!
A beautiful bounty!! I'm anxious to hear how you liked the trout.
The trout sounds wonderful. So does that salad. Yum.
bermudaonion, I am loving the peas, too.
Staci, the fish was good!
Gentle reader, thanks!
JoAnn, yes! I was thinking the same thing when I looked at the photo. The trout was really good, firm and flaky, yet light with a stronger fish flavor than some things - like catfish. The girl loved it and ate all of hers and some of ours!
Les, we all really liked it, even the girl! She was talking about gills though while she was eating it...
Carrie K, it was all yummy!
mmmm... that looks GOOD. I was just saying the other day I need to get to the farmer's market sometime soon. Must. have. grilled. trout.
Kim L, it was so yummy - the trout!
