Park Slopin' it

Thank goodness for summer and the rays of sunshine that finally appeared today after a solid WEEK of rain in the city. Elisa and I were feeling particularly peppy and up for a ride, so we tagged along with Dan and his mom Mary to visit the Park Slope Farmer's Market where our good friend Molly Killeen sells her excellent sweets and bread. Since Molly's little boy Jude (pictured here with dad Ronan) is almost one this month, she's always provided a kind of window on what to expect next. And as we like to joke, it's good to know the boy your daughter is going to have a crush on in about 12 years.
We didn't waste anytime going to eat at a nice little cafe/market along Fifth Ave in the Slope. I think the name was Get Fresh. And it certainly was. Nice seasonal produce and fruit-filled muffins. Definitely yummy. Here's Dan with Jude in the garden area. Elisa was almost asleep when we arrived and stayed in her "zoney place" as I like to call it for a good half hour. Once I finished my meal, though, she perked up and enjoyed lots of little bites of toast. That girl LOVES her bread. Just like daddy, I think.

Here's Molly and her boy enjoying some shade and taking a break from the market.
