Market Day (6.1.13)

Another beautiful day at the market with my girl this morning! We hopped right out of bed, got ready, and walked out to the bus stop (little detour to Starbucks on the way). We got there around 7:45, and it was already hoppin'! Strawberries are here! We had a little picnic breakfast of rhubarb muffin and fresh strawberries. Cool breeze, warm sun, soft grass, sweet strawberries. Heaven.







She grabbed a strawberry and squished it in her tiny little paw; see the strawberry juice running down her arm? That's my girl.

P.S. this lettuce is bigger than my head. A lot bigger.
