Sunday afternoon, I had more than ten tasks and projects to get completed before the week started up again. However, instead of running around the apartment, marking things off my list, I got completed sucked into a documentary that Scott was watching. Called To Market, To Market, To Buy a Fat Pig, (from the old children’s nursery rhyme) it is an hour-long visit to farmers markets all over the country. They take you from New Mexico and California to Ohio and Hawaii.

The only market they visited that I’ve personally been to is Lancaster, PA’s Central Market and, having seen this program, I now have an unquenchable urge to plan my vacations around new farmers markets. I think before the summer is out I’ll be driving down to Lexington Market in Baltimore to explore.

If you are a fan of farmers markets, this is one not to be missed. It’s on the PBS schedule in various locations for the next couple of weeks.
