Weekend Recap

We had a great weekend! We started the weekend by having our annual July 3rd family portrait taken. Did it turn out great? Well, no. But it's okay. And it's really not about taking a "perfect" picture but about all the memories...

We ate lots of good food (sorry, no pictures!): watermelon, blueberries, strawberries, vegetable fried rice, summer salad, bread pudding, a huge spinach salad with avocado dressing, grilled veggie burgers and home-made baked salt & vinegar chips.... The baked salt & vinegar chips turned out great. I got the idea here.

We also took the toddler to the "duck park." I call it the duck park because there are tons of birds and ducks, and the toddler has the best time chasing after the ducks and just being fascinated by them. It can be a bit stressful at times as the toddler is usually about to jump into the water and after the ducks... But we (and especially the toddler) had soooo much fun!

Like every Sunday, we went to the Farmers' Market, AND I actually took pictures this time! :o)

Here is what we got:
  • Cabbage
  • Red cabbage
  • Celery
  • Carrots
  • Green onions
  • Yellow & red potatoes
  • Cucumbers
  • Heirloom tomatoes
  • Avocados
  • Fennel
  • Walnut baguette
Questions: What did you do over the weekend? Did you make it to a Farmers' Market? If so, what did you get?

Be well,
Andrea
