Today, I visited the Farmers' Market (nice and early, when there weren't many people around) for the first time since before Christmas.
The Farmers' Market - a market that dates to medieval times and is to be found in the old city centre beside a church that is over 700 years old, was actually quite lovely in the cold, clear, bright light of an early spring morning.
A lovely crisp, cold (but bright and sunny) morning, and I bought fruit (apples, oranges, blood oranges, lemons, grapefruit, and mangoes), honey (from a chap who keeps bees), free range, organic eggs, vegetables (tomatoes, cucumber, chilli peppers, garlic, onions, leeks, carrots, celery, tomatoes, sweet potato, lamb's lettuce, chard), cheese - in the cheesemonger's - (Gorgonzola, Blue d'Auvergne, Comte, St Nectaire, Délice de Bourgogne, and Dent du Chat), cannoli (lemon), in an Italian coffee shop, and French bread in the French bakery.
