400th post, a giveaway, yard sale finds and Farmers Market all in one!

Wow! 400 posts- I don't really know what to think about that! I started this blog June 1, 2005. So in a little over 6 years, or 319 weeks or 2273 days- I wrote 400 posts, hum a little over one a week average.

So, maybe not so much a celebration but a reward for those who read my ramblings- I have a small giveaway.

I love this Tim Holtz rubber stamp set, so much that I bought two, opened them and didn't realize I already had. So, I am delighted for it to find a new home. I use the quotes and the little bird a lot. So, if you want this rubber set to come live with you or to pass it on to another who will love it, just comment on this post before next Saturday morning and I'll use the random number selector to choose a winner. Since my readership is certainly small you have an unusually good chance to win this prize and who knows what else might end up in your envelope!

Today's haul

The market was hot today and we got there by around 8:30 with a detour to the coffee shop (iced, please) and a yard sale (details to come). So, we didn't linger. The chicken is frozen and I didn't bring a proper storage bag and frozen blue thingy for toting. The blueberries are done-boo- and the bison woman wasn't there- boo hoo.  But, there's a box of blackberries, peaches, tomatoes, chicken, cabbage, flowers and an omelet!
Love the Cherokee Purple tomatoes. Bruschetta tonight!

the peaches looked great!

Jim has been loving these on his Shredded Wheat, which he eats dry- yuk

my omelet! 

The omelet had potatoes, kale, beens,onion, squash, choizo, goat cheese and some kind of Kenny's cheese. Yummy!

Aren't these flowers pretty?  Sweet William and a type of hydrangea I thought would be nice as a switch from the sunflowers.

These are growing on a fence in the alley we go home through. So inviting!

Now don't forget to spread the word about my giveaway, if you don't mind the competition! And leave me a comment to be entered!

Hope you are somewhere cooler than here doing something fantastically fun! And just because I can't help myself, here are O and E!
