THE FARMER'S MARKET IS OPEN.
(click image)
The Saturday morning farmer's market on Cherry St. reopened in April. You can click the image above to peruse the photo-essay I posted on the subject last August. The produce currently on offer is mostly greens, green onions, asparagus, and radishes. Lots of seedlings plants were on hand, too. Several different artisan bakers were hawking their wares. I urge all pilgrims and seekers to seek out and support local growers at a farmer's market or elsewhere. Be one of the splinters under the manicured nails of our feudal corporate overlords.
A new espresso bar recently opened across the street from the parking lot where our market is held, and I mention it because I had the best cup of coffee there I've had since the last time I visited the espresso bar at the Market on Larimer Square in Denver. The elite of "Midtown" are meeting here. The lady in the hat left center in the picture is Miss Pam. If you live in Midtown Tulsa and don't know who Miss Pam is, you should. Charles Faudre, noted interior decorator to Ladies-Who-Lunch, was sitting at a table just outside the front door, with a decorative spaniel in his lap. Any establishment getting his custom can proudly proclaim itself pissy-er-than-thou. And the wonderful coffee is actually cheaper than that served at Barnes & Noble or Borders, or the faux bakery chain Panera.
