A little too bean-tasting to go on cereal or in coffee. Oh well, back to Wildwood.</b> It turns out that soy milk from the farmers market is pretty gross.

I've been hung up on honeydew melons. They have been super sweet and perfect this year. I did stop at a Farmer's Market in downtown Houston yesterday and the peaches would knock you down with their smell when you walked passed. They're hard to beat. Don't you just love the farmer's markets? I'm just starting to visit them and it's so much nicer than going to the grocery store. There is a different feel to an open air market and you get to meet the people who grow your food. Love it. I'm learning that there are several throughout the week in Houston so I need to start visiting more. Love your blog. :) LOVE the rainbow of colors. I’ve been hung up on honeydew melons.

I have definitely noticed So Cal is a few weeks ahead of San Francisco in some foods. It still isn't really warm here yet. That’s interesting.

Unfortunately, this was the last week of the cherries - one of the farms (with only a few pints left) told us it was the heavy rains earlier in the season. The rain bursts the fruits. One stand had really amazing tomatoes - several varieties, and they were awesome - they were also being mobbed by everyone there. We're seeing several types of eggplants, and lots of summer squash.

I'd kill for a bowl of blueberries right now. I think I'll go to the market tomorrow and blow a hole in my budget for them. Or perhaps I'll refrain from it and see it as an exercise in self-denial.
