Farmers Market.

Today is Saturday, and Saturday is Farmers Market day. And this Saturday was a warm and sunny Farmers Market Day.
I lovelovelove the Farmers Market. The Market I go to here in Baltimore is extra awesome. There is a fabulous local Dairy, who make the absolute best sour cream ever, and a purveyor of meat that is local, antibiotic-free, and grass fed. There is a mushroom stand that has all my favorite mushrooms, including black truffle on occasion. I got some Boston lettuce still attached to its root, a huge bag of spinach, a good amount of kale, 2 beautiful eggplant, 2 dozen fresh eggs, and my housemate got some beautiful loaves of bread, of which I will not partake.

One of my (many) goals in life has been to eat locally, and organically. Its harder than it looks, but with Atkins, I'm doing a pretty significant job of it. This way of eating is all about eating whole foods. The only pre-packaged thing I bought today was a can of diced tomatoes, for a meal later this week. Everything else is in its natural state, just waiting to be put together for a delicious meal.

Also, I weighed myself this week. I've lost 9 lbs. wOOt!
