I went really not thinking that we'd buy much. I had a group on for a market box that will be home delivered this Wednesday. I knew it would have fruits and veggies so really didn't need too much but, flowers-beautiful and pumpkins! I fell in love with the one I got which is supposed to be very delicious. So, a week or two of admiration and then into the oven! It weighed in at a whopping 19+ pounds. So this week's haul was over 38 pounds. We walked 1/2-3/4 of a mile home.
I wasn't going to get fruit because 6 pears and 3 apples are coming Wednesday. But, I wanted a few apples for the meantime and Jim likes sour and I like hard and crunchy sweet ones.
We bought a whole chicken, cut-up whole chicken, two pounds of ground bison, apples, a nice small ivy house plant, two mini mums, one for my neighbor Judy, and one for my Mom.
I got Punkin' Sticks ( the little eggplant pumpkins from last week but still on the stick), little sunflowers, and tuberose- can you smell it? So sweet! There were bunches of them.
I hope you enjoy the pictures from the market and the super heavy haul for this week. I know we will!
Amy, the vegetarian will be in residence for 10 days so I know all will be eaten.
I'll give you a review of the box that comes mid-week, too!

Wow that is a lovely haul. Who carried the pumpkin? Or did you take turns?
Please share what you end up doing with the pumpkin.
sheesh that a heavy haul...
Those pumpkins on a stick are so cute. All the pics are glorious. What a gorgeous day.
We've been lucky up here too. It's still fabulous weather.
Lindalou-I started out carrying the apples, pumpkin, and flowers-Jim the meats and mums. 1/2 way home we each took a handle of the bag and shared the weight. We were both glad when home was in sight!
I will probably make curried pumpkin soup and pumpkin bread and muffins.
