I get my vegetables and fruits from a street market about a half a block from our apartment. Little tables and stalls are set up on either side of a narrow side street. They generally open about 6 a.m. and I am usually there by 6:30, before it gets too hot. The first lady is very friendly, speaks some English and is happy to tell me the names of things I don't recognize and to give me cooking ideas for unfamiliar vegetables. The second lad has a great smile and, early on, helped me figure out the money - particularly the change. A few days after I took these pictures, I took them each a copy and they seemed quite delighted.
