Markets Are Alive
>> Saturday, 3 February 2007
When last have you been to the market? not the supermarket or a mega-market; I'm talking about those weekly or daily farmers' markets where everything is fresh, sometimes alive, in variety and abundance.
In this week's column, I discuss my market-trips as a youngster.
Below are some recent market scenes. For more, view the album on the right.
Cheapside Market, Bridgetown, Barbados
Fresh goat, Mon Repos Market, East Coast Demerara, Guyana

Fresh food, all the time, every time.
I find going to the market too stressful, I aint goin' lie. De vendors does bully me.
@ Stephanie - girl, I know exactly what you mean. If you start going regularly, the vendors will become familiar with you and give you an ease. Strike up a friendship with them, you'd be amazed at the response.
We are so blessed to have fresh food in abundance all year round.
Today is one of those days that I am at a loss as to what to cook. It is one of those days I wish there was a daily market here (in Barbados), that way, I could take a stroll through, be inspired, grab the stuff I need and come home and create something.
