Have you seen any effect of the draught or heard anything at your market? So with all this hot weather and no rain, what is the predicted effect on farmers markets across the state?

When mixed with salt water a mature quince will turn its sour taste to sweet. The game is played by throwing a quince into the sea. All players race to catch the quince and whoever catches it, takes one bite and tosses the quince again, then the whole process gets repeated until the quince is fully eaten." Cool.

I ended up buying a 15" pan from Vons, and had two 12 inchers that made enough roasted veggies for the whole week, and they were scrumptious! I feel your pain about the roasted vegetables.
