I can't tell you how nice it is to go to the Greenmarket early Friday morning. I am almost hesitant to tell you, because I don't want people to hear and it to become crowded! Anyways, I made my rounds last Friday on a mission to get
ramps, rhubarb, asparagus, and fiddlehead ferns. I ended up with all of those and a small basil plant, eggs, and shiitake mushrooms. In the booth where I bought the fiddleheads and ramps, some guys from
The Spotted Pig (my favorite restaurant) were buying a hefty load of fiddleheads! By the way, I am noticing a trend - if you carry herb plants with you, someone is bound to talk to you. It happened to me with my rosemary, and it happened to with my basil on Friday.
