Spring Fever.

It’s official- spring has sprung in East Tennessee.

You know what that means?

Going to bed early on Friday nights, so I can beat the
Farmer’s Market crowds on Saturday morning for fresh flowers.

Running grimy fingers through black dirt.

Eating grilled Tomato-Basil sandwiches as fast as I can pick tomatoes.

Riding my little red bicycle.

Sunshine.

Ok, so maybe I’m getting a little ahead of myself, since technically I won’t be picking any tomatoes
until June. But I can begin dreaming, right?

Scenes from last year:

The motherload of goodness.

“No fingernails poked into corn.”

Free mint.

Gorgeous Clematis.

Doing my best to run over the fowl that play along the stream.

Sunny, “roll-your-windows-down” road trips.

Fresh herbs.

This is what spring means to me.

visit the Farmer’s Market with Heather Bullard.
