Sunday Shopping

The colors at the Hollywood Farmers' Market were beautiful this morning: purple eggplants; red, yellow and green peppers; all shades of greens and many colors of winter squash. I managed to come home without a squash, but everything else jumped into my bag.

Here's what we'll be eating this week:
1 red onion, 3 yellow onions, 1 bunch carrots, 4 large yellow potatoes, 3 red peppers, 2 green peppers, cilantro, 6 san marzano tomatoes, 3 bartlett pears, 5 pink grapefruit, 1 dozen eggs, 4 small plain St. Benoit yogurt, red grapes, black grapes, 2 fuyu persimmons, sun gold cherry tomatoes, 3 cameo apples, 2 mutsu apples, 3 small eggplant, 2 butter lettuce, 1 yellow pepper, rainbow chard, lacinato kale, 1 cantaloupe, spinach, green beans, and Jorge had found the last 3 pomelos in his orchard and brought them for me.

We also restocked some staples: ginger root (not organic but locally-grown - the ginger root at my local grocery store is shipped from China), 5 lbs brown rice from Koda Farms, 1 lb walnuts from Rancho LaVina, and 2 bulbs garlic.
