Ode to a Peach

Peaches at Eastern Market

It’s about the last week for peaches at the NY farmer’s market, but in DC you get an extra week or two.   I’m not ready for Halloween pumpkins yet, so let me savor one last taste of a 2010 peach in Washington, DC.   This weekend, I am visiting some great friends and picking up some amazing produce at the Eastern Market, located in Capitol Hill  near the aptly named Eastern Market metro stop.   The market includes both an open air farmers market and an indoor market where you can buy fresh fish, cheese, flowers, and produce or just sit down for a nice lunch.
