MARKETS

I discovered an amazing sheet of paper from Greenmarket NYC that lists all of the markets in the city and their days/hours of operation. Yesterday I stopped at the 97th and Columbus market where I picked up two beautiful tomatoes for a caprese salad and a lemon cucumber, which is a veggie I'd never seen. I'm psyched to taste it.

Today, after my li'l sis and her beau arrive, we're going to the ever-famous Union Square market. I hope to find another yummy something that I've never had before. These markets are a very special treat in New York - what other city offers a farmer's market everyday of the week - often times in multiple locations?

It's trade-offs like this one that make it okay to live in this jungle of concrete.
