Storybook Market

Farmer's Market Saturday . . . was like stepping inside a beloved storybook.


The air -- crisp and cool,

         the colors -- dancing . . . laughing . . .

                    the smell of kettle corn curling around us

as we picked up some fresh farm eggs from Nicole's chickens, Basin City peaches for a future pie, delicate zucchini for some warm bread, and a trio of sweet knitted hats for the babes.

It was a page out of one of my favorite fall books: Let It Fall.




There we were: tasting, smelling, laughing . . . just like the sweet drawn family of five.

How could it get better?

But it did!  Running into friends . . . taking time to chat . . . to wrestle (Blazer, not me), to share mini donuts dusted with powdered sugar . . . and warmth.


The bounty is plentiful . . .

                     the grace is abundant.

       Let it fall.
