Sunday Shopping

It was another cool, grey morning at the Hollywood Farmers Market. The bright spot was the first tangelos of the year - these are beautiful deep orange citrus fruit with a little bump on the stem end. They taste like oranges, only richer in flavor.

Also rich in flavor are the onion garlic roast pistachios from the Santa Barbara Pistachio Company. Wow, these could get addictive - and they're made without natural or artificial flavors. The ingredients are organic pistachios, sea salt, organic onion and organic garlic. It is true that the real things in life taste the best.

Here's a list of the organic produce we bought today:
2 white-fleshed sweet potatoes
4 onions
1 kabocha squash
1 bunch collard greens
23 small red potatoes
2 dozen eggs
2 bags Bloomsdale spinach
4 cremini mushrooms
16 tangelos
8 oz raw almond butter from Yemetz Family Orchard
6 pink lady apples
1 bartlett pear
1 quart and 6 cups plain St. Benoit yogurt
12 oz hickory smoked pistachios
