Drive Thru Flea Market

If you were visiting on a Saturday morning, and we all piled into Hauler 2 (my Tahoe), and we headed to one my favorite flea markets, these are things we would NOT find:

*amazing antiques

*collectibles

*vintage home décor.


But how about a goat, or chickens, or fresh produce, or  plants?

And the best thing of all?

I never have to park my car.


Let that sink in. 

I pull up to the gate, pay a $1 entry fee, get in line behind other cars, and drive slowly through the market.

If I see something I like, I gently hit my brakes, pray I’m not rear-ended, and hop out of the car, waving at the car behind me.

Last weekend I bought:

red, yellow, and orange bell peppers- perfect for Black Bean Corn Salad ,

3 for $1

a bag of Mexican limes ,

$1

and bougainvilleas ,

$8.


I have said this many times on this blog-
and whatever the adventure,
I meant it-
and I mean it now.

I was in HEAVEN.

Don’t you want to come visit?

I Love Limes

I love limes.

Not Florida limes ladies.


I love small Mexican limes.

Mexican limes are WONDERFUL squeezed into iced tea,

or

into

a

very

cold

beer…

while sitting on my patio listening to my Ipod.

You are ALL invited.

And you can

NEVER

eat avocado without it.

It is one of life’s great pleasures.

Simple Instructions:

Peel a ripe avocado.

Mash it on a plate with a fork.

Sprinkle it with Nature’s Seasoning.

Squeeze a small Mexican lime over it.

Stir.

Eat.

I’ll be waiting on my patio.
