We are in love with the little farmer's market that is down the street from our house every weekend. We've been every Saturday since we've arrived. We try to beat the heat and the crowds by getting there early. It's located in the parking lot next to the park and playground that Addie loves to play at. The park is really beautiful and there is something about the hustle and bustle of people shopping for produce, baked goods, and local cuisine from little vendors. We buy all our veggies organic and locally grown. The asparagus is wonderful. We buy fresh pineapples, ripe mangos, bananas, and Jack fruit (the yellow interesting fruit pictured below). The potted plants are exotic and gorgeous. We took home a purple orchid for Mother's Day last weekend. We always order two Thai Iced Teas from a little Filipino woman, they come cold and full of that sweet cream on top. The grilled kabobs are good and our new favorite is the vegetable lumpia. We get 4 for 80 pesos ($2). Delicious. We haven't experimented with the other cooked cuisine although it all smells delicious and we walk around lamenting about how we wish we could try one of everything. After we are done shopping we walk Addie over to the playground where we swing on the swings and climb the stairs and I know she's is wishing her legs to walk and run so she can play with the other kids. Soon enough.
