Byrd House Market, Week 5

This week's market haul:
Asparagus
Blueberries
Zucchini
Broccoli
Strawberries
Mesclun mix (complete with pea shoots)
small bouquet of wildflowers and lilies

The only disappointment was the strawberries. I should have known better, though, than to buy strawberries after the real heat came on. The berries looked on the edge at the market, and within a couple of hours, they were in sad shape. Out of a quart, I got a small bowl of cut-up berries with a bit of sugar tossed in to keep them from retarding further.
