Friday Night Markets Part Deux


Our Friday night began with the pub and a brew. We moved to the Markets for food & research. Food, obvious, but research? Yes, Michelle is going to paint us something that reminds us of our Friday nights.


One of the places in Adelaide that helps me think of home is this Polish stall at the Markets. There are packets a aplenty, Polish sausage, even real horseradish. I needed horseradish for Easter and the ham.



Remember how I promised a better photo of Michelle? Here's one of her thinking what fish to purchase for our grill/fish tacos. It was very tasty, especially the taco part.



One of the images that we really used for inspiration was this one. Although we don't regularly shop at Seven Brothers, the food always looks tasty. The best part about this was the angles and the shadows. The final painting will also have people walking through the markets with bright colors of food and signs overhead.



Veg here, veg there, veg everywhere you look. One of the best parts of the market is the seasonality of the veg. You can get anything all year round, but the specials on different fruits and veg really make it clear the season. Cam, Michelle, and I all took turns with the camera throughout the Market. Lets say that I took this one!



Purely by watching, you can see interactions between perfect strangers. They were just giving money for bread, but to capture that transaction, one had to be quick with the shutter. I love the warm tones of the light in this image too.




Of course, there even is a honey store! Eating local honey really helps with the allergies, at least that is what I tell myself. We use lots of honey for our granola, thanks to the recipe from Bode. We have one final posting to go with Michelle's visit. Stay tuned...
