To me, it's the best summer food, and it can be cooked so in many ways! Goes with everything. Unfortunately, the market is quite small in Ottawa, but it has good basics: green beans, bell peppers, asparagus, mushrooms, carrots, tomatoes etc. I usually shop at the Chinese market for the rest of my veggies.

P.S. La Cucina Italia (a magazine) in this months issues has several amazing looking recipes for squash blossoms. But no one had them this week. I can't wait to buy them again to try the recipes.

I'll make a soup out of beets and potatoes and barley, and eat it for a week, give some away, maybe freeze a bit. I'll break into the watermelon this afternoon.
