September 26

Chard.





I don't remember seeing mushrooms at the market before.





I am starting to feel my autumnal urgency to soak up color..........









I have no idea what these are. With their multitudes of little spikes they are reminding me powerfully of that spherical micro-organism in the "drop of pond water" at the museum.....







Purple cauliflower. Who knew. Or yellow, for that matter.......





Gladiolas.





I know people cook with squash blossoms, but I believe this is the first time I've seen them for sale at the market.





I was really trying to capture the translucence, but the camera wasn't real happy about focusing on these........





Pumpkins.

I got purple broccoli from the market the other day. Like purple beans, it lost its color as it cooked. Very good though!

We love broccoli...........

I'm not surprised that the purple went away. I bet the yellow stays, though. But I could well be wrong.
