Tragedy has struck! I went to the farmer's market a little late today, and they were out of peas! OUT! Of PEAS!

I annoy everyone with my use of capslock because.. peas! None! *sniffs*

To make up for it, I bought more fruit than I can possibly eat in a month (yay Flavor King pluots! And Flavor Queen, and these beautiful golden peaches that weren't rosy at all, and plums, and sugar plums!). And heirloom tomatoes (soon to be made into caprese salad) and baby Yukon Golds, soon to be broiled with some of the flavored olive oil my sister got me from Italy and rosemary.

Amazingly, going to the farmer's market is making me cook, because all those fresh vegetables just sit and beckon. Maybe next week I'll get some artichokes... I haven't had artichoke in a long time, and I love them.

But I am still sad about the lack of peas.

While I cannot understand the joy of peas since it is out of the realm of my experince, I would like to share that I have been exposed to the most awesome recipe for that peanut sauce you put on cold noodles! It was a little spicy and normally can't stand spicy things... but it was so good!!! I was all upset about the spiciness yet I couldn't stop myself from getting 4 to 5 helpings. It was terrible. I think I drank like 5 to six glasses of water. Such delicous torture.... so naturally I got the recipe so I could do this to myself at home.
