dallas farmer's market

jay and i both love going downtown to farmer's market. we've been trying to think of some easy ways to save money, and unbelievably in dallas one of those ways is to eat your vegetables! yesterday, in the high heat of the afternoon (the "real feel" was 103 degrees), we made our way through the aisles of fruits and vegetables, buying whatever we liked. we ended up with enough food for a minimum of 4 meals, snacks, etc. we spent $16.

i'm telling you, dallas folks, it doesn't get any better than this. i was on a high thinking how you really can eat healthy without spending a ton of money.

in a related story, we go out to dinner every sunday night, it's kind of a tradition in honor of that sinking feeling that work starts tomorrow, so we treat ourselves to a fun dinner. this week it was mi cocina, where we walk in, hear of our 30-minute wait, head to the bar, order up two margaritas...$16. oh well. it all evens out somehow, i guess. ; )
