Vegetables at the St. Lawrence Market in Downtown Toronto.
Some girls get a thrill for jewelery. Others get goosebumps over the new Louis Vuitton collection. Me? Give me a bunch of coloured veggies picked straight from the ground and I will be yours any day. I love it. I credit my excitement for fresh colourful veggies to living in Germany for close to 4 years. Farmers Markets are a BIG part of the culture in Germany and one that I miss very much. Fortunately for me and my addiction to colouful vegetables, although I have left Deutschland, I still carry with me the love for bright, colourful, whole foods. When I returned to Toronto after living in Germany, I visited the St. Lawrence Farmer's Market and was *SO* excited when I walked in. The bright oranges, purples, reds, greens....OH! What a great way to start a Saturday! Brought me back to my pleasant Saturday mornings in Deutschland.
