Lost Weekend

Made the farmer's market just before the sky opened up on Saturday, but the rainy weather probably kept the traffic down.  It's a shame most people don't realize the best produce of the season, and certainly the most variety comes at the end.  Tomatoes, corn and zucchini are done, but everything else is still coming on.  Winter squash, collards, kale, carrots, beets, spinach are all at their peak now.  Of course if we keep getting a couple of inches of rain every other day it will not last, but carpe diem.  No frost in the forecast through the middle of the month, so there is still basil in the garden.  Time to make pesto.  Anyway, that was the high point of the weekend.  Mrs. Monzeglio and I saw the Taming of the Shrew last night.  One of Shakespeare's more misogynistic efforts if it is taken at face value.  A lazy, rainy Sunday, and it's back to Produce World on Monday.
