Boise is wonderful too, Sara. MauiJim is from Eastern Washington, and we spent a few years there going to college together (Ellensburg). I do so love that terrain and actually “hunger” for it periodically. I love the city, as long as I can get to the country quite often. Roadside stands in the less populated areas are always fun. Thanks for stopping by. Do you chat on twitter?

Simply gorgeous photos! Man I miss the Portland Market, and Pike Place as well. Both used to be my home towns!

Thanks so much for stopping by! I’m really amazed at how early some of the flowers and vegetables are coming to market. Local farmers are developing ingenious ways to grow things in the cold earth. oh yes, that pear and fragipane tart is indeed killer. I will be buying a couple more at the market tomorrow.

JEALOUS!!!

I miss American farmer’s markets soooo much and it looks like the West Coast gets a jump start on a lot of flowers and produce before the midwest (where I grew up).

Fantastic photos. That frangipane looks like a killer.
