The woman I get the choc. sapotes, mangosteen and all sells there too so I checked out what she had. I wanted to go to this market especially today 'cause I knew there'd be jicima there. Almost all of the farmers had some last week. I got there late this week, so only found one with some, but it was good so it worked out. (click pictures to enlarge & 'Back' to return) $10 of Cooking Bananas: The guy I get these from on Wednesdays was there today & said he would give me some for a special price. He seemed to need the money for something today, so I got some even though I already have lots. He threw in extra. We'll eat 'em in one way or another... $9 of Jicima & free Jabon I got these Jicima as everyone was packing up. I was late and spent a lot of time chatting with the woman I get the mangosteen from about fruits and farming and all. The woman I got these from gave me the jabon (pommelo) as a gift. Heh, she tried to give me tumeric first, but I didn't want tumeric (said I don't cook) then daikon (a kind of radish) & I didn't want that (said it was too spicy). I didn't realize she wanted to gift me with them until she showed me the jabon & said it was a gift. I thanked her very warmly. That was nice. Oh, and I got a delivery of 2 pounds of lettuce mix while I was out. It cost $12. The woman I get the mangosteen and stuff from gave me some samples of her tangerines - satsumas, yum. I might get some from her next time. She also gave me a free ripe haas avocado, which I used on sandwiches for my son. He snatched a few bites of it while I was making the lettuce, tomato and avo. sandwich and said that we should get more avocados. I think I will. ;-) Next -- >>>
