Where summers are short, we must celebrate them intensely!
Montreal knows this, and her people glory in markets and street life, exploding with fresh flavors and colors. I’ve taken you along, in an earlier post, to Atwater Market. Today, we visit Marche Jean-Talon, with a stop in Vieux Montreal.
Whatever season currently prevails where you live, immerse yourself for a few moments in summer!
Fruit makes her happy!
Figs
Pick a peck of purple peppers
Pick your own
Hydrangeas
A fuzzy flower
Are these parsnips?
Huge raspberries!
Maple syrup, of course!
Foxtail flower!
Too pretty to eat?
Many, many eggs
Garlic
Blues

Browns
Sunny faces

Currants and ground cherries and more
Peppers
Green and white perfection
Now that’s a summer eclair!
