Saturday Mornings

This summer Saturday mornings have become a delightful routine. After breakfast I begin walking to the local market and along the way I find garage sale after garage sale leading me on many detours as I follow each sign. On one recent Saturday the first sale proved to be so successful that I had to return home to leave my treasures before continuing on. A few blocks later more finds and another trip home. Having finally arrived at the market I found one stall which had simply and beautifully displayed their fruit and vegetables in brown paper bags, ready to take home and enjoy.

These are delicious little yellow plums.

Moss Street Market

Every Saturday morning I visit a neighbourhood market and choose a subject for a drawing or painting. This week the onions looked particularly lovely... I thought this one looked stately, no common onion.
