This summer, the Oshkosh Farmer's Market moved from the parking lot at the Courthouse, to Main St. downtown. They block off the street for several blocks for the market on Saturday morning. What a great idea! The whole town seems to turn out for it. We usually bike in together as a family.
One of the attractions is Pie on the Porch. They raise money for historical restoration on The Morgan House here in town :
And the Blueberry Pie IS good! They serve the pie on real china plates, with silver forks, and cloth tablecloths, and real flowers on the tables. It's a classy affair for a street cafe!
Me and Oliver downtown.

I liked the color display at this stand. ROY-G-BIV!
Yummy Plums! Time to make the dumplings ... except the plums all disappeared before I could get out the flour and boil the water. We also bought apples. I got a whiff of cinnamon and ginger last week, and knew someone would be selling apples this week! Time for apple pie and apple crisp and ... and ... and ...
Skies above market.
About the little things that matter most : beauty, memory, love, friendships, wonder, awe, taste, travels ... All the things I don't want to forget! "These moments given are a gift from time. Just let us try to give the moment back to those we love, to those who will survive." --Kate Bush, "Moments of Pleasure"

Black Hawk Hot Dog
I don't consider myself a hot dog eater, but these dogs at the BlackHawk Music Festival in Mt. Morris, WI, are DELICIOUS! So in July, I ate my annual "dog."
