Saturday Smiles: Fall in the Air At The Santa Barbara Farmers Market!

It was cooler this morning, our temperature was 57, when we headed to the Santa Barbara Farmers Market.  Many of the regular farmers were missing, they must have decided to sleep in this morning. We bought snow pea tendrils pictured above.  They are delicious sauteed with garlic and oil, and they taste like snow peas just in leaf form.

 

Wishing you lots of Saturday Smiles

Michael Jacobs we hit 81 around 1PM, and then it has cooled off and the winds are blowing in cool air.  We are so happy it is not humid.  Snow peas will wait until tomorrow, we have a celebration planned.

Rob Thomas they are really delicious, we enjoy them as a vegetable dish.  If you have a good Chinese restaurant around, be sure to try them.  Since they are seasonal, they are usually on the menu as a special.  A

Roy Kelley if there is a Chinese market in your vicinity, there is no doubt you can find it there.   In our opinion, they are worth the effort.  A

Robert (Bob) Gilbert I heard it was raining in Texas, the benefit of the hurricane in Mexico, and we may be getting some of that next week.  Wishing you and Yolanda a nice weekend.  A

Dick Greenberg next time you are at Yank Sing, ask for the hagow with snow pea leaves.  It is one of our faves.

Brian England I bet that was fun, we used to play tennis on a regular basis and loved doubles.  Have not done that in a while.  We have talked about it with friends.  A

It is such a nice sport, as it doesn't take too much time or money and the exercise is great.

I am glad to know about them and will not be afraid to buy some if I see them. I really enjoy snow peas and their unique flavor.

Pea tendrils are really good for you.  I often buy them at my local Farmer's Market.  The couple who run the stand where they are available are like a walking talking encyclopedia of plant medicine.

Myrl Jeffcoat we took a friend to Yank Sing in SF.  They have the best dim sum.  One of their dumplings is snow pea leaves, and we were telling her about the boost in energy you get.  She loved it, and I think we ordered it again twice.  I love the stuff.  A

Endre Barath, Jr. that is fine, we will do it...We could also meet up in the Wine Country, best time to be there is then, when everybody had gone home, and the locals have the place to themselves, and the prices are normal at the hotels...We are game.  A
