In *good* news, I went to the other grocery store today

[conuly]

to pick up pancetta, which is half the price it is at my closer grocery store, and it turns out that berry season has arrived! Two pounds of strawberries for $3! Two boxes of raspberries for $4! Neither of those are actually berries, but whatever!

I was also able to get purslane. That is also not a berry. Neither are the cherries I picked up for $2 a pound. We are going to be eating so much fruit this summer. Just can't wait until the farmer's market gets ripe peaches in. And currents.

I wait all year for fresh, ripe fruit that isn't bananas* or oranges** or apples. Can't eat those hard peaches and plums that you get most of the year. I'm gonna eat myself sick.

* these are berries

** so are these

Eh, lawyer, negotiator, writer, artist, but really not a botanist. Bleach. Dirt. Mold. Bleach. Allergies. Can't breath. You are confusing me with my kid brother who farms. I'm a city girl who lives in an apartment with no plants. ;-)
