I'm SO glad I went to the Farmer's Market today :love: 1/2 the stuff I got, Kroger's wouldn't have had, and for the 1/2 I COULD buy I'd have paid more than what I did for all of this! Anyone want to take a guess at what I spent today?

Brocolli, green onions, asparagus, bok choy, parsley, spaghetti squashes, green & red bell peppers, red potatoes, turnips, basil, parsnip, habenjero peppers, adame peppers? cubanello peppers

I don't care how much it cost, I will write you a check if you will just cook it for me.

Sheba

:rofl: the white sausages are my fav :right: especially with lots of mustard!

Nooo, I wish it was $50 :D but higher than that.

Sheri :D together we would have such a mad, passionate episode in the kitchen should we ever meet there /sultry look

Were you at DeKalb Farmers Market?

Sheba

Were you at DeKalb Farmers Market?:agree: I love that store so hard & should go there every time I shop. I have no idea why I don't?

FYI it was $130. The bottle of wine was almost $20 & the pizza was $7. The rice I about choked on, over $2.50 per pack but it's a rare indulgence. Mango's .89 each :boobies: & so worth it!

Last time I did a big shopping haul it was at Kroger's & it was $250 :mad: forkers!

I love that place.

It was 319 miles from where we lived though. :cry:

Harry's Farmers Market was a good substitute though. It's the #1 thing I miss about ATL.

I've never been there when it wasn't packed.I usually go earlier, like around 9am and it's not bad at all, ie no waiting for a checkout line kinda good :D

I'll go! I've never had lunch there. Are there places to sit? I've seen the buffet line and folks stacked up and I keep meaning to see if they have chinese (my fav food) and take some home but I never do it.

I really wish we could take pics there :nono: it's like a foodie wonderland :love:
