hillsboro farmer's market

We went down to the local farmer's market for the first time last Saturday. I think I've mentioned this before, but I just love the feel of markets - the smell of yummy greasy food, beautiful flowers, cute clothes/jewels, and a friendly atmosphere. I always manage to pick up a small bouquet of flowers, and dashed toward these gorgeous peonies. The lady in the booth pronounced them "pe-OH-nies," which made me chuckle a little. I can't get across via typing just how emphasized her "OH" was!
We also found a water fountain behind the booths that the kids had fun playing in. We actually went home to get swimsuits and came back to play. I think this will become a new summer tradition - shopping and sprinklers, how much more fun could it get?!
