Mark and I realized we had not been on any family outing of late that did not involve Home Depot, so Saturday we headed to the Minneapolis Farmer's Market. What a great morning! It was easy to get to, easy to park, and a great place to take it all in. We were virgins to the farmer's market...so we left the stroller and wagon at home. The kids had no problems walking, but next time we will be bringing the wagon, because our arms were overflowing with goods we purchased... (and we will be coming back!). We came with a mostly empty diaper bag and left with it spilling over.
We ate a foot long hot dog with fresh peppers from a meat market in Cannon Falls, sampled olive oil and balsamic vinegar, sipped coffee, smelled the flowers, and listened to the musical talents busking on the street.
Back at home with our goods - radishes, dill, parsley, poppy plants, honey, olives, and goat cheese & red pepper hummus ($4 but just too tasty to pass up).
I'm not sure these flowers will survive...we will see. They are now in the backyard.
The dill was used on our salmon on Sunday.
The parsley will probably be used for potato salad later this week.

Thanks for visiting!
We could have run into you there! A last minute invitation had us going to a horse show at the State Fair grounds to watch our niece, otherwise we would have likely taken our first voyage there as well!
