Time flies when you're having fun


How can One Local Summer be over so soon? Do it again next year, Liz. I'll be there with bells on.

I went to the DeKalb Farmer's Market today. It's so pleasurable to shop there--the foodstuffs are all meticulously labeled with their place of origin, and so many of them are southern! I bought a bunch of things: Georgia shrimp, Georgia whole wheat flour, Georgia muscadines, Georgia zipper peas. I am easily tempted.

Here are some more of the spoils:

TROUT MEUNIERE

Farmed rainbow trout - north Georgia (about 125 miles)

STEWED BEANS

Pole beans - North Carolina (distance unknown)
Sungold tomatoes - our own (0 miles)
Vidalia onions - middle Georgia (about 125-150 miles)

WARM POTATO SALAD WITH SORREL

Potatoes and sorrel - our own (0 miles)
