Boulder Farmers’ Market: A Beautiful Saturday.
I think fall is the best time of year at the Boulder Farmers’ Market. Especially on a nice day like yesterday. I love seeing all the heirloom vegetables that have been cropping up in recent years.

My favorite purchase at the market was from a woman who was giving samples of homemade salsa. The salsa was so, so good, and her shtick was that she was selling sacks complete with everything to make the salsa, including fresh vegetables, herbs and instructions. It was so easy to follow that even I was able to make awesome salsa. I think she is on to a great idea. The salsa was perfect with the fresh corn chip I bought from a Mexican family a few booths down.

Below is one of my top stops at the market. Boulder Popcorn has to be some of the best popcorn grown on earth. It’s all natural, and the blue, yellow and red cobs are about 3 to 5 inches long, just like the old days. Each color has their own unique flavor, and they’re all just so tasty – and good for you too. My favorite is the Mayor’s Mix. I have purchased other old-school popcorn before, but this stuff is the best.
Boulder Popcorn is the best.
The woman below appears to spin a lot of wool on Saturdays. I am entertained by her often; so are my kids. There’s something about the way she moves… well I don’t know what it is, but I want to sit in that chair and take my turn at spinning wool. It looks like fun, at least for a few minutes. She is proof that it’s not about the money. There is something more that drives this gal.
This woman loves spinning wool, and she is good at it, too.
OK, two more pics. Isn’t this bike cool. It holds up to 6 little kids, or a lot of groceries. It is a Madsen from a company in Utah. If my kids were small enough, I would get this urban hauling machine. I think it’s the first of its kind.

This bike is so cool I found a better pic for you.
