More from the open air market and World Toilet Day

Good morning to all of our friends and followers. It's a very crisp morning in the Peddler's Son Produce's warehouse. My temperature gun is registering a cool 53 degrees.

We had another great Saturday at the open air market. Many of our customers have came back 3 or 4 weekends now. They all have good things to say about the quality of the produce they've purchased. Being the good eater that my grandmother made me out to be, I've asked our customers about the different recipes they've used our produce in. Just listening to them describe the dishes makes me hungry. My favorite has been the chili rellenos made with our poblano chilies.

Upcoming Events

Today is Homemade Bread Day. I just love the smell of just baked bread. Here in Phoenix there is a bread bakery located by Van Buren and Grand Avenue. Driving by there at the right time of day, I just close my eyes and sniff. The only better smell than fresh baked bread is when you peel the seal off a peanut butter jar. Actually, both aromas might be tied for 1st place on my list of favorites.

This week includes a very special day. Wednesday November 19th is World Toilet Day. The World Toilet Organization is very serious about delivering sustainable sanitation to everybody. To get involved all you have to do is visit the WTO website at www.worldtoilet.org.

With Thanksgiving just around the corner and having no family in town, the Produce Guru is accepting invitations. I'm scheduled to visit 3 feasts so far. I'll be starting my day out in Queen Creek with the lovely Suzie (Accounting Department) and her family. My second stop will be in Gilbert with Robert (Specialty Buyer) and his family. Rounding out the festivities, I'll be in Phoenix with Ted (Owner), Joe (Owner) and their family. If you would like the Produce Guru to visit your table, just send me an invite at bridge@peddlersson.com.
