It's a beautiful day...........

The weather here is so beautiful. It is a little mind altering to be able to go to an outdoor market and buy things that were picked fresh that morning.
They had all kinds of wonderful veggies, unfortunately they were mostly green in color, which Jay has a major problem with, anything green I mean.
But I did find some tomatoes and the most beautiful strawberries I have ever seen. They were so sweet, so juicy and so big.

They also had artichokes, I love artichoke hearts, but am too intimidated by the process to cook them. I have watched them being prepared by lots of TV cooks, but......   It seems like everyone trims differently. I wish I could watch someone prepare them in person, standing right there peering behind their shoulder.  Have any of you ever cooked artichokes? Can you give me some hints? Can I come to your kitchen and watch?
I think we might hit the pool today,not sure yet, as I said before the weather is amazing.  This is our weather forecast for the next week. What more can you ask for.
