Trip to the farmer's market

Despite everyone in our household coming down with colds, Madeline and I dragged ourselves to the Farmer's Market on Sunday because it's our one opportunity to get really good produce all week. I had been planning to take lots of pictures of the fruits and veggies of the season and of Madeline and me cruising the market scene. But by the time we got there, due to my post-nasal fog, I just wanted to get my goods and be done with it.

Going into the market, I had big plans for Madeline's palate. As I wrote previously, the list of fruits and veggies that she can eat now that she has hit 8 months has greatly expanded. Two things that I was excited for her to try were eggplant and melon. Eggplant, because when you think of baby food who thinks of eggplant? And melon because I was sure she would love it. I was able to score both plus a lovely array stone fruits, some freshly picked carrots, and other more grown up fruits and veggies not yet for her consumption.

Here are some pictures of this weeks bounty:
