Garlic | Ginger | Cilantro | Oranges | Grapefruit | Cucumbers | Kale | Tomatoesx3 | Celery | Eggplant
Yes, I quite like tomatoes.
Even as I buy mostly for soups and juicing, there are things I can’t resist. The beautiful heirloom cherry and grape tomatoes caught my eye. They’re still on the table. Uh, aging.

Kale | Yu Choi Sum | Onions | Tomatoes | Asparagus | Ginger | Thai Basil | Watermelon | Cilantro | Persian Cucumbers | Radishes
It’s all in the edit. The delay, I mean. It’s been a crazy couple of weeks and I couldn’t decide which images I liked most. Still not sure if these are them, but, you know, whatever. The food was good, smelled amazing, and tasted divine. Okay, except for the radishes. I left them out and they shriveled up.

Persian Cucumbers | Cantaloupe | Onions
My apartment smells sickly sweet from the cantaloupe that wasted away in front of me. It sat there, all week, making sure its scent danced on air. Always noticed, always ignored. Yeah, smart.
I bought less to avoid this very thing. Oh, well.
Just a few hours away from another trip to the market. Thinking no more melons for me. Wait, watermelon. I want watermelon.

Ginger | Cherries | Peaches | Garlic | Onions | Peas | Thai Basil | Chinese Broccoli | Kale
Yeah. The cherries and peaches are gone already. Artichoke hummus, too. It didn’t even make it home for the class picture.
I was just in one of those “Dude. Yes, feed me.” moods. Plied with samples, I couldn’t resist. I bought the artichoke hummus and it barely made it to the office fridge. I tried to keep my Alice Waters-ian breathy enthusiasm to a minimum. ‘Cause breathy and garlicky are confined space crowd pleasers! But, man, was it gooood.
This weekend, I’ll be stocking up on Goya chickpeas and finally get my ‘choke on. (♥: Umm, that sounds…) Ohhh. Right. If they’re still in beautiful abundance, I’ll be picking up some artichokes at Hollywood on Sunday. (♥: Better.)
It’s gonna be a hummus summer. I can feel it.
