Umm… Can we talk about Pike Place Market? OMG!

The second I walked into Pike Place Market, I wanted to move to Seattle.  That’s it.  That’s all it took.  So much fresh fish, fruits & veggies, flowers and then all the wonderful artisanal goods like steamed buns and tiny doughnuts.  What’s not to love?  I was in heaven.

This is going to be a picture post… I think they say it best in this case.  Plus, there are so many that you’d probably want to kill me if I wrote a paragraph about each one… and then you’d probably never want to read my blog again.  And that would be bad.

So, here we go!  Pike Place Market!

Fresh fishies galore!

This was the beginning of our lunch.  Fresh crab cocktail!  Mmmm….

So much beautiful produce too.

And the rainier cherries!  TDF (that’s, To Die For).

And berries and fruit galore….

And weird stuff like fruit sticks and dried strawberries.  Sounds good to me!

Plus, tons of jams and jellies.  This one was the “ghost pepper jelly”.  I, of course, would never try such a thing.  Waaaaaay too spicy for me.  He said it burned for an hour.

I have no idea why, but the flowers were in serious abundance and dirt cheap.  You’d pay $50 for a bouquet like this in a flower shop.  Here they were $5 and $10!
