I am always so jealous of your produce! I got spoiled in California. Farmer’s Market here doesn’t open for a bit longer.

Beautiful photos! You’ve just inspired me to visit one in Vancouver this weekend. The farmer’s markets in the NW have a different vibe than those in the SW…could it be the weather? Haha.

I’m so jealous! My local markets don’t open for 2 more weeks. My mouth is watering already. Thanks for sharing the wonderful photos and great food even if I can’t have it yet. Also thanks for the passionate comment you left about the FDA pasteurization or irradiation of food. It was great for awareness of what is happening to our food when the money industry takes over. I am a proud supporter of my local farmers and markets. We don’t have a spot for the big government!

@Jacob: That’s another thing that we really miss from Southern California – the abundance of year-round farmer’s markets. In the Altadena/Pasadena area there are 4 that I know of that are year round, and within 20 minutes of each other. In fact, the Thursday evening farmer’s market in South Pasadena is a really great event. We were weekly attendies for sure. The Montrose Farmer’s Market is also another really good one (Sunday morning I think…can’t remember). Thanks for the comment – I’m definitely following your progress on ThisIsNotADiet!

@Rev. Todd: Thank you for the follow-up. Its a question that I’m trying to find good answers on, and this does help. With so many divergent opinions on exercise, I thought your summary was really straightforward.

For folks who haven’t seen the post on Rev. Todd’s site, here is what we’re talking about: http://lesstodd.blogspot.com/2008/03/muscle-building-tips.html

Well worth the read.

Thanks again!

hey… thanks for checking out my blog. To answer your question, i use weight watchers points so I deduct points for exercise and I make sure I eat all of my points each day. I assume that counting calories will be the same. I have a couple of resources that I use and I will let you know what they are soon. I just want to check out some things about calories real quick. Keep up the good work… I’ll get back with you soon!

Sorry, one last thing. I love farmers markets and the one where you now live seems like a good place to get some great food!

Hey, Metroknow,

Thanks for the tips! I’ll definitely make my way to the Zorithian Ranch. I do love history and art and in some way, this all does relate to health & fitness. Since I started hiking, I’ve learned a lot of history and have been feeling better in my health. I’m going to check out that Arroyo Trail.
