Find the Gnomes!

Hey there young market goers!  Tomorrow's market will include a special happening just for you.
 
FIND THE GNOMES is an activity for the kids of our community;
a special scavenger hunt around the town green, where gnomes and special fairy lore are hidden throughout our market. 
 
Times depend on how many little seekers show up, but we'll try to accommodate you whenever you arrive. Arrive any time and meet at Jen Kane's table (Kidzcolors) for info on how to get started.  Thank you to Jen Kane for organizing this fun market event! 
 
Also, have you noticed the NEW Bristol Farmers' Market t-shirts at the market managers' table (that's Sally's table, for those of you who know her - and if you don't, just introduce yourself!)
 
Our market t-shirt sports a beautiful wood-carving print from Vermont's own Mary Azarian.  Shirts come in a comfy cotton and are printed here in Bristol.  Can't find a shirt in the right size or color?  No problem!  Sally can take your order and have it ready for you next week.  They make great gifts, too!  $12 for kids, $16 for adults.  All proceeds go to the promotions of the market. 
 
OK, here's another quick menu idea for this week.  With school here and busy schedules back in gear, how about a…
 
Crustless Quiche and roasted vegetables (had this tonight as a matter of fact)
Yup, who needs the bother of a crust anyway?  This is quick, healthy and yup - LOCAL!
 
combination of fresh vegetables (zucchini / summer squash slices, tomatoes or whatever you've got)
leafy greens (kale, swiss chard, collards, spinach)
garlic - pressed or chopped
onion  - sliced thin
6 - 8 eggs
1/2 cup of cream (or milk)
 
Sauté up the onion and garlic.  Add vegetables until soft.  Throw in greens last until then wilt.  Beat eggs and dairy together in a buttered pie-plate.  Add sautéed ingredients and put in a 375 degree oven.  Bake for about 35 minutes.  Add some roasted root vegetables to the menu (potatoes, beets, carrots, turnip) and you've got an easy, quick meal. 
 
Happy eating! 
See you at the market,
Olga
