Today in Portland was like a vignette of our image of a perfect Fall day. The Park Streets Farmer's Market changes this time of the year - fewer tourists - fewer vendors - but, instead, it's filled with locals who clearly love eating healthy and eating well. Fresh caught fish, baked goods, fall vegetables, an immense variety of apples and so much more is available, along with locally made goat cheese and small batch brandy. (Something for everyone).Golden leaves are starting to drift down from the trees and the temperatures are starting to get chili and people are smiling everywhere I go. It seems that this is Portland's favorite season.
I've fallen in love with a local soup company, "SOUPER NATURAL'. They provide four different soup tastes each week and a menu of soups that are Vegan, Gluten free, Vegetarian, and meat based. Today I bought a mushroom, bacon and white bean and tomato basil. Defrosted in my refrigerator is clam chowder so that was my lunch. They ship so even if you don't live here, you can enjoy these fabulous soups.
As I'm writing this, fireworks are starting at the river = a perfect way to end a lovely day.
