Spring Fruits and Fresh Organic Local Veggies Soon!

Early spring fruits and fresh organic vegetables will be here before too long, and not a moment too soon as far as I'm concerned!

It's been raining here all day, and more on the way. Rainy days like this make me hungry for local organic crops. About this time of year, all the flowers are in bloom, fruit trees are laden with their soft pastel flowers, and I am so tired of hot-house vegetables I could weep.

I'm counting the days on the calendar until the first Farmers' Market opens here locally -- with the first spring fruits and local organic vegetables calling to me from the fields where the seeds are sprouting already -- but not much has emerged this early yet.

We'll probably see some greens in abundance -- maybe some mushrooms, or a few early carrots, but not much more.

Whatever delights we will find, I am more than ready for them! I've been craving the early blueberries. . .

How about you? Which fruits and vegetables do YOU most miss over the long winter months? Let me know!

I'm thinking of adding a poll or survey here, to get a "reading" about what people miss most. Would you take it if I do that? Add a comment here and let me know!

Thanks for reading -- see you at the Farmers Market soon!

Yours for extraordinary dining -- for everyone,

Nancy
