Asheville Farmers Market!

February!

We love a good farmers market.

So on Saturday, we headed over to the Asheville Farmers Market. We'd heard a lot about it, but we'd never had time to check it out.


Now that we live here, we had the time. So we went.


It's awesome. It's also H-U-M-O-N-G-O-U-S. And it's open year-round.


We found all sorts of great local stuff. Of course a lot of it's organic - this is friggin' Asheville.


Here's a great example of how visiting a farmers market can help you make a positive life change. A long time ago, I used to use about a pound of sugar a week in my coffee. Then I switched to stevia and TJ's fabulous almond milk.


OMG, so delicious...


But after going to the Asheville Farmers Market, now I use this:



Good for the old allergies

We also found homemade Amish peanut butter.



Only $5.95
but it'll end your marriage

That's right, peanuts, fluff, honey, and brown sugar. It's unbelievable.


Tonight Barb mentioned that we'd eaten half the jar by Wednesday. By the way she said it, I knew she meant that was a bad thing.


And here I was, thinking, "We made it all the way to Wednesday! Let's polish this (deleted) off!"


Nope.

"This is why we can't have anything nice in the house," she said.

So there you have it. While the Midwest and the East Coast are getting pummeled with snow, and California is facing its worst drought ever, here in Asheville, we're worrying about our peanut butter consumption.
