I think the citrus monster snuck in and threw up on my counter.
Lunch. I think there's well over 5 servings of fruits and vegetables in this one meal. An avocado mixed with 3 tomatoes (yellow and red), green garlic, juice of a meyer lemon, a little olive oil, sea salt, and pepper. The fresh juice in the back was something like 1 grapefruit, 1 blood orange, 3 tangerines (satsuma and clementine), and 2 navel oranges.
The bread and cheese were an afterthought for a little protein, but it was really yummy. I think the cheese is this one.
Oh, and I just had a mango for dessert.
This one is clementine, red grapefruit, and valencia.
No cat pictures, just a lot of fruit.
And one flower just for the hell of it.
I'm not complaining, I'm just saying...
Yesterday I got strawberries, blueberries (a little too early, but not bad), peaches, apricots, and cherries. Mmmm...
When I first moved out to San Francisco (oh, almost 9 years to the day ago), I was amazed by the fresh apricots that were in season at the time. Like figs, they were fruits I had only know in a dried form before coming out here.
Strange little things, they remind me of tomatillos (maybe since they're closely related). I've only had them once before ~ they left a few in our room each evening at the Hilton in Stockholm years ago. I saw them at the market yesterday and didn't get any, but then they were at the grocery store as well and I couldn't resist.
Really? AgroBerries? Does that mean these blueberries are going to get all hostile? Now that just doesn't sound good...
Yesterday I wandered around Marienplatz and the Viktualienmarkt.
The Viktualienmarkt was overwhelming for someone like me. I finally had to leave because I had run through both of my camera batteries. Wine, cheese, flowers, meats, fish, fruits, vegetables, and on top of all that ~ dogs. There were even dogs at the market. So yeah, overstimulation.
(I got yelled at on Friday for taking pictures in a public place, so everything from yesterday was taken in stealth mode. Which means I came back with a lot of pictures, but not a lot of great ones.)
Show us some fruits and/or veggies.
Ha! Oh, Vox Hunt, just you wait...
