Farmers’ Market Lunch

Cow Cookies from Wisconsin

Cow Cookies from Wisconsin © 2008 Bo Mackison

Dane County Farmers’ Market was in full swing this morning. I came home with vine-ripened tomatoes, corn on the cob picked at dawn this morning, green and yellow and red peppers, eight different varietals of garlic, pumpkin bread, cheese bread, ostrich burgers, and a huge bouquet of lilies and calendula. But the highlight was the purchase of pumpkin blossoms. We dipped them in egg and seasoned flour, then fried them. To round out lunch, we had grilled cheese and tomato sandwiches followed by fresh peaches.

Summer eating at its best. I’m saving my dessert-half a cow cookie-for later.

    Cow cookies and Ostrich Burgers. Something seems out of place here. Aren’t burgers made of cow?

    Neat photo.
