She Spills The Beans: What You Missed at the Market

About

What's All This Then?

Vegetarian recipes and occasional marketing snark from Fresno, California, smack-dab in the heart of the San Joaquin Valley, land of abundant produce. Originally from Northern Virginia, I ditched out on an acting degree from NYU because the city's food stores and greenmarkets were much more interesting.

I've spent the past twelve years in the food industry, as a cheesemonger, tiny cog in a vast major cereal company machine and currently, as a marketing jill-of-all-trades at a produce commodity group.

I am a Non-Compensating Vegetarian.

What You Missed at the Market

About my absence: I am just swamped at work and it's keeping me from doing much else. I'm not even cooking...Chimp has been keeping us fed.

Saturday was the first sweaterday at the market since the spring. It sure was nice.

I picked up some of these beans from John of Flower Garden of Madera. He said they're three different types - I need to shell them still to find out what I've got.

I got a pint of jalapenos from Michele, thinking Chimp would certainly find something to do with them. He loves cilantro, lime juice, jalapenos, garlic and salt buzzed together into a fresh seasoning, as do I.
