to market, to market

Today was MARKET DAY!  I love market day. 

The antique market comes to town once a month, and when it does I really love wandering around with a coffee on a Sunday morning.  Today I wandered with a coffee and a little Avett Brothers in my ears...which was just lovely combined with the sun on my face.  It's like a little slice of "Home" in a nice little village which is no place like home.  Their tunes playing in my head as I look at really old phonographs, photos and pottery was a great way to start the day. 

Anyway, I usually take the same loop, saving my favorite vendor for last.  I always end up buying a little something from her...she's got reasonable prices and really cool looking pieces!  I'm getting quite the collection going, but only small things--I need to get it home somehow! 

I didn't buy anything for myself, just cool things I thought people back home would appreciate...and wouldn't you know, I bought it from the same lady as always in the corner...





 After the market, I learned how to cook my favorite hungarian dish--Paprika Chicken.  It contains homemade noodles.  But I think I can recreate it back in NY....I just need to bring back Hungarian Paprika!  You can't get it in America I don't think...so I will bring plenty home to cook with because they flavor everything with it here and it is SO good.


Also, I'm really feeling the need to express my love for dark chocolate ice cream.  There is one place in town which sells it...and it's literally like heaven in my mouth.  It's one of the most fantastic things I've ever eaten...I predict many many dark chocolate ice cream breaks in my very near future. 

But for anyone who knows me at all, you know that I love ice cream, so this should really be no surprise! 


Spring Break in 2 days--thank Goodness!  To be honest, I'm already in Spring Break mode.....
