farmer's market!

I didn't get a chance to post pictures from our farmer's markets visit last week. Another check off my list of fall dates
The first thing I saw was The Grilled Cheeserie, a food truck that is basically my dream come true. Unfortunately the line was long and we were a little crunchy for time...so until next time, TGC. 
This farmer's market is held at a park right near my house (biking distance!) and features all local vendors. So it's pretty small, but that's nice because it's not overwhelming. 
Our first treasure was some yummy salsa called Ousley Ouch! We met Mr. Ousley, the inventor behind it. Aaand we're suckers for salsa. I've been snacking on it all week. 
Definitely tried a few things I had never had before, like Banana relish and Green Tomato relish. All I wanted was some Strawberry jelly! It was actually pretty good though. 
Scenes from our second treasure, from a hummus company called Hummus Chick. She had black bean, garlic, and chocolate hummus (three separate options, not all together). 
We made off with the garlic & cilantro hummus, and a sticker! 

I'm all for supporting local vendors, especially when it makes a nice little afternoon date. 
I wish I had exciting fall break stories to share, but mostly I: watched some movies. caught up on T.V. shows. had dinner with some friends. worked at the restaurant. had rehearsal. did some homework. BLAH. 
Now it's back to crunch time before the show, school, and a nasty cold. And I thought I would be good on sickness for a whole year!

I really like farmer's markets. We have many, many, many of them here in Germany. I am glad there are some in the US too, cause I am going to spend a semester in Ohio from january on and I would love to find a farmer's market there too :)

This looks like so much fun, and everything looks so delish! I remember visiting a farmer's market while I was living in the U.S. and it was sooo much fun. They had all sorts of fruits and other foods, and at incredible prices!

We have a grilled cheese truck called Cheese Louise and it is my FAVORITE thing ever. Especially when they park at the brewery! I love farmers markets but have not been in way too long! This one looks so good! Hope you're having a great day!
