The Farmer's Market

Hi Everyone,
    Happy Saturday! My husband and I took a trip to the local farmer's market and it was really fun. Even though the weather was slightly cold, it was still an enjoyable experience. The area I live in already supports local businesses so I had high hopes for the market. I wasn't disappointed. If you've never been to a farmer's market, please visit one. You can find great fresh fruits and vegetables, meats, honey, breads, tasty snacks and more. Here's some pictures because I just had to take my camera along with me. 


Beautiful root vegetables 
Potatoes 
I bought 3 bars of soap :) Mint, Almond Oat, and Rosemary
Apple Cider Doughnut. Only 75¢. It was SO delicious; it's now a weekly Saturday treat.
Loved the mushrooms. They are so beautiful. 
Mushroom tea!? I was mesmerized haha
Apples

Fresh Strawberry Lemonade only $2 dollars. Yum.
Empanadas! We bought two of them: Beef and Spicy Pork. Yum!

Of course flowers everywhere and they were all pretty.
    I had a great time and we'll be back next Saturday; probably every Saturday. Bought some hydroponically grown tomatoes, bread, 3 bars of handmade soap, mushrooms, and our tasty treats for only $30.

Spring Has Arrived

Hi Everyone,
    Over the weekend we finally had spring time weather! New York has been extremely cold for this California native. My husband and I walked down to Broadway, the main street, for some fun and relaxation. Both of us are recovering from a nasty chest cold, so we thought a little fresh air and sunshine, aka radiation, would cure us. We stopped and got a drink at Plum Dandy; our local frozen yogurt and boba tea shop. I didn't have a boba tea but I did get a really delicious  dairy-free smoothie called the Honey Bear. After some refreshments we walked over to the park, which we haven't been to yet, and it was a HUGE park! Bigger than any public park I've ever been too. We saw ducks a plenty and even a mother duck who had eggs. Perfect for Mother's day.

Lots of people were there as well and most had really cute dogs with them~ Apparently, the local High School was having their prom that day so we saw many girls in prom dresses. My favorite part of the day was being able to wear my new spring clothes and share the beautiful day with my husband.
Top is Forever 21, shorts are Old Navy, shoes are from Walmart
