Had a long chat with one of the artists and bought something small from him—it's not especially good, but it IS a very good souvenir.

We love produce markets where one can see what the culinary traditions are and try out new and exciting foodstuffs.<br /><br />This market looks to be particularly interesting and we love the idea of it transforming itself into a creative hub on Saturdays, the perfect day for wandering at leisure and meeting with arty types! We should love it. And, yes, how good it is to leave a place with a unique souvenir of the visit. Wonderful to own and to have a special memento to rekindle good memories.Jane and Lance Hattatthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16831890261259302647noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9055676571236633849.post-29995368435237217092014-04-21T05:07:41.015-03:002014-04-21T05:07:41.015-03:00I often went there as a kid.
