the little collection of stores which has been being built for months and months, (and is less than a full block from me), finally opened yesterday...
the place, which is really too small to be realistic, was Mobbed...our little neighborhood in SF is really a village kinda site...there is: a knife shop (they sharpen as well) a vegetable place, a sushi shop, bakery, empanadas, and a pickle place which also has sandwiches...point neen??...
carrots...that's the point...at the vegetable place they had bunches of carrots, still dirt on 'em and the greens in tact...I could tell they were gonna be good...and I was Right!!...I haven't had carrots this good since moving from new york--and we've been out here since '76...they were Perfect...we went down again today and, while there were slim pickens left, I did find another bunch and they too are grand...the person who owns the little booth said she is going to try to get more next week...
what I really liked about her (in addition to her almost full sleeve) is that she said she is exhausted from having to talk to people all day...it made me laugh since I feel the say way when I am at a show...all the small talk, and smiling, and friendly stuff...not my natural inclination to be sure...and yet, if one wants to sell, one has to do all the interpersonal crap...it made me laugh to hear her complain about it though...I think I will just keep going down there so she has to chat to me !!
what I know I will do is make a carrot cake...I hope she'll get in a fresh batch of them 'cause they will make a screamin' cake...
this eye strain was brought to you by good 'ole yappy neen....
