City Market

Good day to you all!! : )

This week has been flying by! (But I guess I'm okay with that?)

By the response from my last post, it looks like we are all VERY ready for Summer produce!! The thought of all those fresh berries, melons, and garden veggies make my mouth water!
While we were in Kansas City this weekend for my birthday weekend we stopped by City Market. As their website says "the City Market has been one of the largest and most enduring public farmers' markets in the Midwest ... in addition, more than thirty full-time merchants are open year-round and offer specialty foods, fresh meats and seafood, restaurants and cafes, floral, home accessories and much more".

I've only been there a few times and walked around, but I seem to like it more and more each time I go and I'm definitely excited to go back more this summer. (It's about 50 minutes away from us). Here are some random pictures while we were there this past weekend ...And tonight I didn't feel like cooking and my husband was super tired, and I was craving sushi. So we just went to one of our local grocery stores and got some sushi (though it's not the greatest tasting sushi in the world and it's kind of fake sushi, it satisfied my sushi craving) ... There's not much of a choice there so we got California rolls and some squid salad. I was a little leery about the squid salad but ended up thinking it was pretty tasty.
What are you plans for the weekend??

I don't really know that we have any, and I'm glad!!

And before I go, I have neglected to mention something! Lately, I have really been overwhelmed with kindness from a few bloggers who have given me awards and I've been terrible and forgotten to mention them all! So ... here they all are and THANK YOU for making each day a little brighter for me!! : ) I continually am amazed at how nice and wonderful you all are! Who knew you could "meet" such nice people like this! (** keep in mind these are over a period of weeks, I'm not as popular or cool is it may appear by lumping these all together on one post, I promise! ; )

First off, Sophia at Burp & Slurp passed onto me the Lemonade Cheers AwardSecondly, Candice at brand new sidewalk passed along to me two awards (they came in a package together;)

Next, Kristy at the wicked noodle and Helen at Helen's Journey both passed the Sisterhood Award

And last but not least, Olga at Mango & Tomato passed onto me the Friends Award. So, thank you all again, I really appreciate all the love! : )

Even in literature and art, no man who bothers about originality will ever be original: whereas if you simply try to tell the truth (without caring twopence how often it has been told before) you will, nine times out of ten, become original without ever having noticed it.
