Yesterday's farmers' market was a delight of color. All I wanted was my winter supply of maple syrup, but the temptations were many. It goes for 8 blocks around the capitol square Capsaicin The vendors know how to get attention Beets 'n flowers Autumn mums Nice merchandising Indian corn Last but not least

It is up to YOU to educate yourself and then help your doctor plan your treatment. If you just sit down in front of your doctor and say "make me better" you are setting yourself up for a great deal of pain.

| I suspected that...that's why I included the cheese pic. Melly, mums are one of my favorites too. They're one of the few things that bloom in the fall for me. Edited to add: LOL, the bee guy deserves a good slappin', but he sells a lot of honey cause of that hat.

I haven't been to that market in about 25 years. It was always a blast. Did you get your maple syrup? Brewcrew just brought home a quart from a friend he works with whose family produces it - it's so incredibly yummy! $8 a quart - does that compare to yours?

| At $8 a quart, you did good! I like the "B"grade. I cook with it quite a bit, and my half gallon was $20.

| It's almost as bad as "It's a small world" No pigs, Mel, just free-range chickens, pasture-raised beef, and trout.
