The Last, Good Tomato

So, like, I went to the Tower Grove Farmer's Market today, hoping to find some tomatos, since they seemed to have disappeared from that market in Souldrd a couple weeks ago. Turns out, them pesky red veggies (fruits?) were back at Soulard today, but by the time I hit 7th & Lafayette, I'd already bought some heirlooms (and "not so hot" salsa) from the Tower Grove Market and was happy to do so on such a gorgeous morning.

Next weekend's the swan song for the Market, with two days and expanded hours for each: Saturday and Sunday, 10 a.m.-5 p.m. Sources say some quality magazines will be for sale, along with CDs, DVDs and other local ephemera.

Here're the details:
