Bart Boehlert's Beautiful Things

We went to the Farmers Market today and I forgot my camera -- drats. There were a lot of tuberous things, grown underground, like potatoes, carrots, and beets, since there has been a frost above ground. But the Farmers Market was still very crowded, with a lot of people moving through very narrow spaces. Like everything else in New York City, the Saturday morning Union Square Farmers Market is not for the weak. It requires patience, and manners.

The man selling this cyclamen plant said the flowers would last until March. I said I would let him know!


I put this winter cabbage in our Tiffany raddicchio vase. I like flowers that don't look like flowers, but I've said that before.
