Photo of a shopping spree. At the local farmers' market. Then lunch in 15 minutes. A version of Salade Nicoise, with smoked Maine mussels substituted for tuna. Everything in this lunch was from the local market except the black olives: fresh eggs, new potatoes, tomatoes, purple scallion, green pepper, green beans, cucumber, dill and flat leaf parsley. Plus local smoked mussels. While the eggs and potatoes were being boiled with the green beans added for the last two minutes, everything else was chopped and assembled. It was all dressed up with a whisked mix of olive oil 3 to 1 with balsamic vinegar and a minced garlic clove. Then plenty of freshly ground black pepper, a huge pinch of sea salt and what a happy meal! Served with local bread and cheese. Topped off with local ice cream and bakery cookies. It's all about shopping.
