Today, LC and I walked over to the Dupont Farmer’s Market for our weekly vegetable shopping and it was so crowded.  The beautiful weather brought lots of people out, some with pets and others without, and plenty of business was being done at the stands which is good news for local farmers!

At the market this weekend was Chef Jose Andres, the famed owner of Jaleo and Cafe Atlantico among some of this restaurants. He was serving up tasty portions of paella which LC and I had an opportunity to taste.  We made our way to the market after LC taught 2 spin classes and I went for almost an hour-long run so I know I was very warm under the heat of the early summer.  We were able to get great tomatoes, some pea shoots, fresh basil, and some soft shelled crabs to cook up later.  Yum!

After all of this shopping we needed to sit, relax, and take in the sights and sounds of Dupont.  Hell, we wanted to drink!  We ended up at Bua’s on P Street between 16th and 17th, right in the perfect people-watching spot of the area.  What we didn’t know (and now do!!) is that Bua’s has all-you-can-drink mimosas during brunch hours every Saturday and Sunday.  Eureka!  Here is the 4th of many glasses we enjoyed
