Farmer’s Market Saturday: Color!
October 1st, 2005 at 7:25pm
I’m a One-Eyed, One-horned, Flying Purple Pepper Eater!

These little mini amethyst gems came from Hawthorne valley Farms. They are sweet and crunchy, and will go nicely with a salad, as a wonderful color accent, or stuffed and baked. I sampled it with some lovely fresh Goat Cheese. Yum!
To balance out the brilliant color today, I also present some amazingly green apples and some brilliant red radishes. Autumn sure is colorful!

HOLA there! Those purple peppers look fantastic!
And they TASTE just as good!
I am with Melissa, the color in those peppers is fabulous. Are they sweet, hot or sour?
They are sweet sweet sweet and crunchy! I had some of them cut in half and stuffed with camembert cheese with some fresh herbs. Fantastic!
If I could get them here it sounds like something that I could take in my picnic basket to share with the rest of my chapter when we attend a local wine tasting Oct. 16.
