Today’s farmers market showcased beautiful end of summer/early fall and was also a trip down memory lane—

1. Trying for the first time, pink oyster mushrooms. And those green apples are Mutsu, my favorite as a child on eastern Long Island when we used to buy them by the bushel at Lewis Farms— so excited to reunite with them after decades!! I also ran into a mom I knew from my kids’ elementary school— our older kids are both applying to college now— and a former patient who has gotten married and had a kid since I last saw him!

2. Cauliflower and Chinese eggplant

3. Pomegranates

4. White and green bitter melon

5. Purple tomatillos

6. Tatsoi

7. Purple and green long beans.
