Farmer's Market and more
Today I discovered cherries. Previously, I knew such things existed, but had only experienced them as over-sweetened bits of nonsense from a jar. Today, I had my first real cherry - and it was marvelous. Not too sweet, a little tart - it was a real revelation. NOW I get why people like them. I bought a pint.
I also bought three onions, a head of cabbage, and some new potatoes, all from Michigan. I'm going to combine those with some sausage tonight for dinner. Yum!
We've moved into temporary housing (which is extremely nice!) and all I've got to do is finish unpacking our stuff and getting a few things we didn't bring with us (like hangers and 409).
I went to go check out the local bike shop yesterday. A very nice lady helped me to go through all the bikes, and I've got two in mind right now. They're a little low on stock, so she told me to come back next week when they'll have more in my size, and I can test-ride a mountain bike too. This city is much friendly to bicyclists than any city I've ever lived in before, so I'm looking forward to getting back in practice with that.
I finally saw Prince Caspian yesterday, and I generally liked it. Caspian and Susan were hot and also badass. Dawn Treader is my favorite after LWW, so I'm very much looking forward to that. Hopefully there will be more Reepicheep this time.
Also! I saw a rabbit in our (very small) backyard yesterday. It had its back to me at first, so I wasn't certain if it was the fattest, fluffiest squirrel I had ever seen, or a rabbit. It was adorable, and nibbled for a few minutes before hopping away. I hope it comes back!
