Not shopping at the Farmers' Market

Went out to St. Norbert today.  We didn't get there last year, and has it ever changed.  Every parking lot in town now offers parking, but for $2, not the $1 we used to pay at the community club.  The market itself is about double in size and contains everything from flowers to leather belts.  There were even some vegetables, but they appeared to be in the minority.  You could buy kettle corn, and have your pants professionally shortened.  I had wanted green beans to freeze and red potatoes ( not the little creamers that are so expensive)  So, green beans=$3.95/lb--that's  a pound, not a kilogram.  Big red potatoes =$2.50/lb.  Ten pounds in the local grocery store are selling for $4.95.  so, we looked around for awhile, I visited the Porta-potties and we came back home.  And all the time thinking about you, Beth and the gardens you look after.
