FRESH PRODUCE!

Hi, Hope you are all enjoying your weekend. As mentioned yesterday, it was a wonderful day!

Today, being Saturday, we went to our favourite Farmers' Market! It is owned and managed by a lovely Chinese family. They have the BEST produce; and at extremely good fair prices. They want to do business; and know how to treat their customers well! That is a gem tidbit; PLACING CUSTOMERS FIRST & TREATING THEM RIGHT!

This wonderful Farm / Nursery opens in April and closes in November. I am going to include the Post of April 6 / 07 (Good Friday) after today's post; so that it is an easy reference for you. AND OUR EASTER LILY, IS STILL GOING STRONG! We purposely bought the meaningful plant, with its unopened blooms; because we wanted to enjoy the Easter Lily blooms to their fullest! It is amazing what joy a tid of a bit of a plant can do for your spirits and nostrils!

We filled our fresh produce larder; and tonight, we will have a sumptious feast; of fresh greens, salad, tomatoes, etc. I have a really good recipe for zuchini and eggplant, if any one is interested. Alan does not like either veggie; nonetheless, I "treated" myself to one of each; and will make a tidbitzing, bittidzing, appetizing dish, "pour moi!" Mmmmmmmm. yummmmmmm! Can practically taste it now!

As they say, "to spread the wealth around". we went to our local florist and picked up some beautiful bright yellow daffodils. Because they were in major bloom, the owner offered the 2 bunches to Alan for half price! Once again, he wants business; and knows how to treat his new AND repeat customers right!

Tidbit - Treat others well; ie the customers; and also enjoy giving business to those, who are appreciative! It is a win / win situation - always!

We continued on to the Safeway; and purchased on sale, a roast; which I will cook up tonight, adding a few bits of last year's herbs, that are rebounding beautifully in our tid garden! "Tiddles" - to enjoy Cathy's word! or "Cheers!"

Speaking of "Cheers", we stocked up on some beer for the Canucks / Dallas Play Offs tonight. I hope the Canucks are able to secure this win; if not, it will be a 3/3 tie; with the 7th and final game of Round 1, to be played on our "home ice" this coming Monday. Either way, my dear Alan, will be in need of some good cheer - beer!

Another tidbit - We have so much to be thankful for in our part of the world! Fresh produce etc.

God Bless!
