day off! i’ve been working very very long hours at my new job, but i am trying to keep the weekends work-free as much as possible, for my sanity’s sake more than anything. today’s trip to the san francisco farmer’s market and Renegade craft fair(check it out tomorrow, july 19, too) yielded the following spoils:

1. free samples from tcho chocolate factory
2. orange and green heirloom tomatoes (courtesy of teresa‘s garden omg i’m so jealous i want to grow tomatoes too…next year i will)
3. bouquet of wildflowers (for the cat to eat, as soon as my back was turned)
4. a half pound bag of fresh string beans
5. this t-shirt
6. a new purse (the girly, tuck-under-the-arm sort of handbag is a new thing for me. i’m more a messenger bag kind of girl, but…i’m trying new things.)
7. a two-tone (red and black) woodblock print of three bicycles (i’m in nesting-mode at home, it’s hard to resist art right now). it was, however, due to the artist’s heavy quebecois accent, considerably more expensive than i thought it was going to be. damn that negotiating in non-compatible dialects!
8. a sunburn
