Concord grapes


...and ripe prunes at the farmers' market at Union Square today. Having caught more cabs in two days with my mom than we have in two years, Vince and I stretched our legs a bit and bought grapes for dessert tonight (dinner picnic at The Inn on 23rd - about which I am still making up my mind), as well as a beautiful bunch of rainbow coloured radishes. I shall transport bagna cauda.

    yum, concords. we grew them in michigan when i was growing up. i didn't know any other grape till i moved and found, as thomas said, supermarket grapes. a entirely different fruit.

  4. Dinner picnic report: we did very well. Would have done better had we not forgotten the bread. ;-)
