Farmer’s Market & Flea Market Treasures – NaJuPicMo
July 12, 2008
I wish you all could smell these - they’re incredibly fragrant and ready for eating.
This will be put to work in a tangy pickle we make with plums, red onion and infused with star anise. We serve it with grilled pork chops.
A local farmer was selling blossoms from his hydrangea bush. $5 for 5 stems! I couldn’t pass these up; they always reminds me of old-lady bathing caps. After the farmer’s market, we headed over to the flea market and I scored a Kelvin Chen tea pot for $1.

Hillary-
Next trip to California had better include dinner at our house. That would be wonderful.

Yum! Especially the plums. Are they Santa Rosas? They look like it. I love the sour sweet taste of Santa Rosas and I think they’d be great in a pickle. Can I have some? Did you get my email from some time in the last week? I really want to get together! When are you free?
