The first part of Sunday -- after a trip to the gym -- was dedicated to shopping. First we went to Market Basket and then to Tendercrop, a small local farm market where we prefer to buy our produce. Linsey, above, is browsing for onions.
Tendercrop, along with its produce, home-grown turkeys, chickens and other livestock, also has two animals on the premises. The top is a llama that doesn't have a known name. The other is Buffy the Buffalo. For a quarter, shoppers can buy pieces of old bread and carrots to feed the animals. We bought a piece of bread. One half went to Buffy, who ate that bread with its long, creepy black tongue. When we threw the llama its half, it stuck to the side of it on its mangy looking fur. It reminded Linsey of those felt boards in Sunday school, with the little felt figures of Moses, Jesus, Noah and other memorable Bible characters.
These are our shopping bags. We were getting sick of plastic bags -- both the great number of them and, yes, environmental reasons -- plus they are terribly convenient. I suggest everyone invest in four or five.

Al Gore would be so proud of you with your shopping bags. I have a bunch of them I got from Trader Joes and Stop and Shop..... just always forget to use them. Thanks for the reminder. ~kt
