You did ok.  I can understand just getting them where you were, as long
as they were decent enough...  :)   Done that, too...  :)

 NB>> Sounds like you made a good haul from the farmer's market...  :)

Sounds good...  :)

 NB>> One of these days, I might make it across to the other side of the

 NB>> again...  :)

 RH> I can understand. Our market is Saturday morning from 8 to noon except

Convenient helps...  :)  Years ago, I used to get up early and go to the
public market with my sister on a Saturday morning... I think it may
have opened at 6, but I also think we didn't get there quite that early.
It was across town from us, so we were driving there... ISTR that I'd
pick her up...  This is the sister that now lives about 40 minutes away
from me, back then we were in the same neighborhood...  :)
