I'm kinda doing eatmakeread's Market Week. "Kinda" because I had to start a bit early (Thurs), as that's when our market is, and also because it's more cooking and posting than my pea-brain can handle. The idea is that you do a big trip to the farmer's market on the weekend, then make your meals for the week from what you buy. But it seems that she's pretty relaxed about it - you can do as much or as little as you like.
Anyway, check it out - a fun and inspiring idea, and there's still plenty of time to join in. Plus she has a lovely site.
And here are our ingredients. The market's a bit miniature, so probably not too impressive, but pretty, right?
We couldn't decide between green and yellow beans, so got both, which is actually rather a lot of beans (you're looking at a mere sample). It'll be a beany few days.
In fact, I already made pasta with pesto, beans, and potatoes - have done it before (waybackwhen), but these pix are a bit better.

yay! i'm so happy you're participating!
Pesto is a good time, it must be even better with such fresh ingredients. I haven't been able to get to my local farmers market yet this year, I really need to!
Looks yummy... making me hungry...
@Kelly: Thanks! Me too!
@Bob: This was only my second time shopping at a farmers market ever! It's crazy what happens once you start cooking!
