Day 17 - The Farmers Market

Every Thursday in downtown Minnneapolis, we have the chance to get some really great, ripe fruit and vegetables at the Farmers Market. It starts around early May and goes through the whole summer. As I have been keeping track of my fruit and veggie intake this week, I noticed that I run out of fresh foods around Wednesday. I hate to buy too much at the grocery store because I don't think I can eat it all before it goes bad. The solution, the farmers market! For $10, you can get plumbs, nectarines, asparagus, grapes and raspberries! So now I'm stocked up until Sunday, when I head back to the grocery store. I could used to this!

1) I said 'no' to driving and biked over to the farmers market before work.
2) I said 'no' to purchasing a loaf of cinnamon bread there.
3) I said 'no' to hot chocolate and stuck with water.
