Farmers' Market

Sharing a scone with Nanna. Yum!

After spending the night with Heather and her family, Heather, Monet and I took rode to the local Farmers' Market.  Once we arrived, Monet recognized where she was, selected a snack from a table laden with homemade treats, and headed for a shady spot under a big tree to share her blueberry scone with her mother and me. After finishing the  scone, we wandered from table to table, watching jewelry makers and face painters and listening to a pair of storytellers. We purchased some little round lemon pound cakes with blueberries on top and one green bunch of fresh celery. A visit to the creaky floored country store next to the market for a cold drink completed our mini-adventure. I tried to teach Monet how to sing "How much is the Doggie in the Window" on the way home. It was a sweet gentle event in our lives on an August afternoon.

It was so nice to show Nanna our little town in a more personal way. Small as it may be, Cornish has some delightful charm and spirit!
