conulyto 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
