Peonies & Cheese

...the joy of the LORD is your strength.

Nehemiah 8:10

What do peonies and cheese have to do with each other, you might ask?

Well probably not a lot unless you've been to the Farmer's Market.

In one of my walks a few weeks ago, I was pleasantly surprised to find this sign.

I made a mental note to return and today was the day to do so. Am I ever glad I did. Not only did I find some fabulously good food, but I also found a quaint and colourful "secret" path off the main streets. I'm going to blog about it another day when I have my camera ready.

Join me for lunch now with the market finds of the morning.

We are having crunchy green salad,


cranberry artisan bread and some locally made cheese, called "Tilly Jilly". I don't know what's in it but it sure was good.

I also brought these lovely peonies home to enjoy.


I've enjoyed another day in God's beautiful world. I hope you did too.
