How crazy is this sudden heat wave? My little apartment has turned into a sauna. But with the heat comes all kinds of excitement, because even though I hate intense heat, I love all that comes with summertime (minus bugs). My favorite might just be farmers markets, and having lived in the city last summer, I was able to take full advantage of all their wonders. I'm a freak for organics, local and sustainable foods, so markets are right up my alley. Last year, I had a class near the Daley Plaza market, and I stocked up on fresh fruit whenever I had the chance. I froze most of it, since I bought a lot of whatever was cheap at the time, and enjoyed delicious fruit smoothies almost all winter!I'm not sure how thriving the farmers markets are in Ridgecrest, but I can take solice in tending the little garden we have on the patio. Once we move, I plan on getting a little more ambitious (like growing berries!). I do wish that open air markets weren't just a special seasonal thing, though. Once again, Paris trumps the US!
