LA Farmer's Market

At the LA Farmer's Market, which we visited yesterday with K's brother, I bought loads of fruit! Tis apparently the season for sweet peaches, nectarines and cherries. (E almost managed to finish a whole donut nectarine by herself today. Almost.) We got to check out another exhibition of beautifully maintained vintage cars, some from the 1930s! And J got to look at a fire engine up close, and was given a 'Fire Chief' helmet too.




For lunch, K and I tried some New Orleans cuisine. I had seafood gumbo with mustard potato salad, and he had a shrimp po'boy (translation: sandwich). Yum, yum, yum.




You can tell from the pictures that I only remembered to whip out my camera half way through the meal (actually, even then K still had to remind me). The kids had sushi - a caterpillar roll, which is basically a California roll with extra avocado rolled around the outside (green, hence like a caterpillar). J was a happy camper with his sushi, and E ate her fair share too!


Postscript: Check out the green buds below!!! Baby cherry tomatoes growing on one of the plants that K planted in our backyard! Our new babies. Which we shall eat when ripe!
