Boston Farmer’s Market Adventures
As usual, I try to visit the farmer’s market at every city I visit. Sometimes this isn’t exactly possible, considering most place only open their markets during nice weather (meaning 25-50% of the year). Luckily enough, Boston at this time is no longer freezing cold and buried in snow. I did have to go a little further out to find this market, but I loved the variety of east coast goodies that you wouldn’t normally find in California.
I honestly can’t remember the last time I found bottled maple syrup (nor had I tasted anything that wasn’t Aunt Jemima’s) so this was a refreshing change of scenery.
Being in Boston, I of course had to try grab a bite of seafood for lunch.
This scallop taco came from this lovely food truck:
After feasting (with my eyes and stomach) through the fair, I figured a walk would be a good course of action. It was spring indeed, considering I had the good fortune of watching some geese build their nest.
This too, was a refreshing change of scenery. It’s good to know that they aren’t always just obnoxiously honking at people and pooping.
One thing that I really enjoyed were the large number of tulips around Boston.
You really don’t see these out on the west coast, but they are EVERYWHERE here. It’s quite lovely to see so much color everywhere you go. Have I mentioned yet how beautiful it is here in Boston?
