Mmm... Produce

Mmm... Vegetables. Sometimes I feel like I overdo it when I go to the street market, but I always manage to eat everything I get within a week. I bought leeks, potatoes, red onions, a watermelon, mushrooms, and what my mother says is bok choi.

I was not sure, but I guess this is bok choi? There are a lot of varieties of these green leafy things, and figuring out which is sometimes tough. These have narrower, taller stems than I am used to for bok choi. I decided just to cut it up and saute it with some of those onions, with olive oil and paprika.

Oh, and this watermelon has a crest carved into it. I don't know. All the ones at this booth had the crest. I am going to eat some of this in the regular fashion, but I've also been looking at watermelon recipes online for salads, gazpacho, and fried watermelon...

  1. Are we insinuating that your mother could be wrong? You know who is commenting.
