Excited by freshness

There is an excitement that you get when you shop at an open air (farmer’s) market that you do not get when you shop in a supermarket. Think about it.

There is so much to see and experience at a market. The freshness of the produce, fruits, herbs, vegetables, seafood, poultry and meat. All of it puts you in the mindset of wanting to cook. You imagine the things you can make. You smile at the rosiness of your favourites and giggle like a child when you find something you have not seen or had in ages. There are times when you feel that you want to buy a little bit of everything in sight because it is just so good. An abundance of riches so to speak.
