Farmers Market Update: iPhone 4 FTW!
It was a beautiful day today in San Francisco. I’m feeling much better and was super excited to hit up the Ferry Plaza Farmers Market and snap some photos.
Apparently though, I’m still not quite in top form. When I tried to take a picture of these beautiful grapes, my camera smugly informed me that it did not contain its memory card. PhotoFAIL. Luckily, I had my trusty iPhone 4.
I was curious how the new iPhone would perform at the farmers market, and today it had it’s chance to prove itself. I still think I prefer my regular Canon SD900, but overall I was pretty impressed with my pocket phone. What do you think?
Not too much has changed at the market from last week. The late summer produce is beautiful, especially the eggplants, peppers, peaches and plums.
The beets have been marvelous (and impressive!), as are the summer squash.
I’m happy to see green bean season is starting to take off. We are experimenting with pickling some beans this weekend. Recipe on its way.
Don’t forget the greens and onions either, they are all amazing this time of year.
Fresh chamomile was nice to find today as well.
