We went to the farmer's market this morning, for the first time in a while. We got some tomatoes, some purple peppers, and the biggest frackin' mum I've ever seen. It's bright yellow and gorgeous. We tasted some goat cheese and some sassafras tea. Yum on both parts. Everything there was beautiful. The place was packed with people, dogs and kids. It's almost everything one could ask out of a farmer's market.
I say almost because I would like someone to explain to me why, at a farmer's market that supports organic, locally grown food, whose very reputation is about sustainability and the wonders of nature, it's almost impossible to find a damned trash can anywhere Yes, I can put that tiny cup that held the sassafras tea in my handbag, but I shouldn't have to.
