how was it for you?


today i could feel i needed some green vegetables, not just bread and tomatoes and cheese. there was a little farmer's market in town, so, green beans.

the little green things in the picture that look like grapes are called chala. they are a relative of the peach. they are hard and sour.

everything shown for four lira (about three dollars) and half of that was for the apricots.

also, _it happened. about once a year i get a _craving for a banana. yesterday it happened. i do not normally like bananas but these cravings overpower me. one banana. it did not live long enough to make it into this picture. it was chock full of potassium. it was just right. the earth moved.
