I attended one of the first farmer’s market of the season of 2014. This is at a time when the buds are just coming out and people are still wearing coats. The first farmer’s markets are quite early in the season, although I don’t remember the date. Here are a few photos from one of these first farmer’s markets. The photos are not in any particular order.
Saturday’s farmer’s market was nice as usual. It is festive, the people are nice, and there are excellent photographic opportunities. An incredible choice of amazing foods were on display. Most are fully organically grown and use choice ingredients.
I came late for just the last half hour of the farmer’s market. So the photos are of “what’s left”. The pastries and breads have been in the sun for hours, but they still look amazingly good. The pictures below capture some of the event, some of the people, some of the food and vegetables.
Last Saturday’s farmer’s market was in nearly full session and is always a joy to attend. Many incredible foods and other things are both on display and for sale. Further the “fm” is held outside the periphery of the State Capitol, and flowers and protestors are also part of it.
It is the time of season where tulips are the flower of choice.
It was well attended. There was a larger crowd than this picture shows.
Here is an assortment of foods that I have eaten within the last months. Most of the items are healthy.
Chocolate chip bagels are tasty.
I am beginning the omelet with some nice choice ingredients. Eggs and onions are typical, and I am adding some slices of pepper jack cheese as shown below.
There are several new restaurants going up on State St. The Wendy’s below is brand new, as of about a month ago. Personally, Wendy’s has always been a hit with me.
This new one is a candy store ?? I’m not sure, but I like the photo.
Well, it is March 1st and we were greeted with temperatures in the teens and another of the many snowfalls. I am becoming frustrated with the very cold winter we have had, as are many Americans.
The picture below shows a picture of the snow today on State Street.
Madison is an artsy town. This is true of most university towns.
This sign drew my eye (and lens) as I was walking down State Street.
I peered through the window and saw art on the wall. I know the artist who did this work. I saw him just recently and asked him if it was his art, and he said yes. Some of the art is a bit erotic. See for yourself.
Good art is also displayed at other coffee houses.
