As of yesterday's trip to our farmer's market, it is officially the start of my Fruitivore season. I bought peaches, cherries, blueberries, and plums. For lunch, I had a huge fruit salad that included all four of my new acquisitions! The only non-local thing in my salad was the last banana from the bunch I bought for my parents' visit.

mmmm FRUIT mmmmm

Also, we purchased a pot of Chinese five-color peppers. They will be quite a colorful addition to the garden. (I don't care how they taste; I don't plan to eat them anyway. They are just cute!)
