One of my favorite things to do on Sunday morning is go to the farmers' market. Claremont's is a small one, only spanning the length of one block, but there's a good variety of fruits and vegetables.
There are even a few artists that sell their work. Jewelry, pottery, photography, handmade soap, etc.
I especially love these little ceramic jars. They're so delicate and beautifully made. The little figurines on the lids add a touch of whimsy. I always admire them and yet I don't own one. Someday. Part of the problem is choosing which one I want to bring home with me. I just can't choose only one.
This is how I spent my morning. I'm glad I went early. We've been having very hot weather. Yesterday it was 104.
The market always inspires me to buy vegetables I usually don't buy and to try to use the ones I do in new ways. Today I bought figs. I'm not sure what I'm going to do with them yet. I bought stuff for salads too, but the figs were the unique ingredient of the day.
After the market, I went to a local cafe for coffee and a pain au chocolate.
The recipe for a perfect Sunday morning.
